“This film will capture a unique moment in our history – highly skilled workers showing how to turn swords into ploughshares. It is a vital lesson for us ... as [we] ask questions about common ownership, what we produce and who benefits from the products. We can be inspired by the Lucas Workers, by their foresight and imagination.  If we want to transform society, this is a good place to start.” KEN LOACH
