No Contract, No Cookies. The Stella D'oro Strike
Description
From Emmy award-winning documentarians Jon Alpert and Matt O'Neill, this passionate documentary chronicles the struggle of a proud group of multi-cultural, and mostly immigrant, workers at the Stella D'oro cookie factory in the Bronx, NY. The group went on strike for 11 months in 2008-9 when the company's new owners, Brynwood Partners, demanded pay cuts of up to 30%. Through interviews from the front lines, the documentary tells an emotional, underdog story about a courageous group of workers as they battle to protect their livelihoods.
