Cooper and Stollbrand is one of the last clothing factories in Salford. Three years ago, James Eden left his lucrative job in the City to buy a stake in the business. Since taking over, James has dragged the factory out of the doldrums and into the 21st century, developing a business that produces garments for high street retailers and premium designer labels.
Satnam Authi's First Cut film visits Cooper and Stollbrand during the busy run-up to Christmas.
Made in England takes an intimate look at the factory floor through the eyes of football-mad Jean and perfectionist Dot, who provide a vital link between management and the machinists as the business works towards completing orders in time for the Christmas rush.
First Cut showcases the best in bold, bright and original documentaries by up-and-coming filmmakers.
