About this movie

With a stellar British cast, Made In Dagenham is the inspiring story of the women who made history! Award-winning Sally Hawkins (Happy Go Lucky) is Rita O'Grady, a feisty yet warm-hearted worker at the Ford car plant in Dagenham, who leads the revolution for equal pay for women. Set in the swinging sixties against a stunningly colourful backdrop of beehives and Biba dresses, Made In Dagenham follows the emotional journey of a group of friends including Jaime Winstone (Donkey Punch, Kidulthood) and Geraldine James (Sherlock Holmes) from the factory floor to the House Of Commons. With the help of Union shop steward Bob Hoskins they prove nothing is impossible if you stand up for what you believe, in this heart-warming must-see story!
