The Kitchen (20/03/1987)

Production : DEFA-Studio für Wochenschau und Dokumentarfilme

Synopsis

This documentary follows a group of women on a typical workday as they prepare meals for a dockyard in Rostock. The viewer never learns their names - there are no interviews. The women are presented simply as workers: cooking, cleaning, hauling, and serving dishes amid clanking pots and hot steam.
