Fascinating case study of the moral quagmire of globalism.

This film exposes a more insidious kind of exploitation, one far more difficult to detect.

Why, then, is the picture chilling? Because it is a calm reminder of an inevitability. The sight of long lines of young women doing tiny bits of attachment work or packing hour after hour, day after day, is saddening.

A Decent Factory is just as much about the motives of the people asking the questions as those of the people avoiding the answers.
50
Though it lacks a focus or greater artistic vision, Thomas Balmès' no-frills documentary offers Westerners a valuable glimpse into the sweatshops of the new China.

40
A cursory, irritatingly facile look at the human cost of globalization.
