Portrait of the English city of Port Talbot in their final year of making steel in the traditional way. The film is a chronicle of the people and places in the city.
This is a solid little documentary. This will be best viewed on the big screen where the images will pop and where you will truly get a sense of place as the images fill your sight lines. Watching the film on a small screen I constantly wished I was sitting in one of the bigger theaters here in New York.
One part elegy for a changing way of life and one part celebration for a town and people that is still standing, STEEL:THE BLOOD OF US is a film that is full of life and nostalgia. The past is not as far away as we might think.
I was moved.
Recommended.
