Microcement
2021
Microcement – a poetic depiction of the daily work at Cementa in Degerhamn on Öland, where large parts of the production were recently moved to Gotland, meaning the majority of the employees lost their jobs. The film focuses on the seven people who remain, keeping production on a small scale going. While operations were being cut back in Degerhamn, a new cement factory opened in Burkina Faso. A flight over the area shows an industrial estate interchangeable with its Swedish counterpart.
