The film is part of a multi-year artistic project project Fabriksflickorna - De viljefulla textilarbetarna, which aims to highlight and discuss the conditions, skills and resistance of women in the textile and home industries. The film is based on the play Fabriksflickorna - makten och härligheten by Suzanne Osten and Margareta Garpe (1980), which depicts a complex historical historical process in the Swedish textile and clothing industry in the 1960s and 80s, during which several industries underwent a restructuring process.The project examines how the textile industry has operated through bodies and how these bodies' experiences have built it. The film is a remake of a reworked version of the play and the voices heard belong to people connected to the contemporary Swedish textile industry and art scene today: former seamstresses, teachers, union workers and designers.
