Breadmakers

2007. United Kingdom. 11 mins. Directed by Yasmin Fedda. Produced by Robin Mitchell.

Spend a morning at the Garvald Bakery, where a team of workers with mental disabilities prepares bread for all of Edinburgh. In its eleven minutes, the film offers an ample look at their communal enterprise. One by one the chores are accomplished, from kneading the dough to painting the package labels to cleaning the dishes, as each participant contributes to the rhythm of this choreographed effort. ST
