Handlung

Volta Redonda is a Brazilian steel town surrounded by a tropical forest. The city's economy, and consequently its citizens' lives, revolve around the Companha Siderurgica Nacional (CSN), the biggest steel mill in Latin America. Steel Town, a long-form HD video, will focus on working-class life in Volta Redonda, building a critical dialogue between art, popular television and politics. The idea for the film arose out of Martin's conversations with anthropologist Massimiliano ('Mao') Mollona, a specialist in labour issues and visual anthropology who conducted eight months of fieldwork in Volta Redonda.
