To celebrate the Irish release of Nigel Cole's Made in Dagenham and IFTA's exclusive preview screening of the film on Tuesday 21st of September, IFTA has two pairs of tickets to give away to two lucky Facebook fans of IFTA.

About the Film

Made In Dagenham stars the award winning Sally Hawkins as Rita O’Grady who is the catalyst for the 1968 Ford Dagenham strike by 187 sewing machinists which led to the advent of the Equal Pay Act. Working in extremely impoverished conditions for long arduous hours which they must balance with their domestic lives, the women at the Ford Dagenham plant finally lose their patience when they are reclassified as “unskilled”. 

With humour, common sense and courage they take on their corporate paymasters, an increasingly belligerent local community, and finally the government itself. The leader of the women’s struggle is fast-talking, no nonsense Rita whose fiery temper and occasionally hilarious unpredictability proves to be a match for any of her male opponents, and is echoed by Barbara Castle's struggle in the male-dominated House of Commons.

Made in Dagenham will be released in cinemas nationwide on October 1st 2010.
