A series of fourteen films looking at women in Britain today-their lives and their attitudes.

The lives of three women with highly differing background and temperament are interconnected through their work at a cigarette factory in Nottingham.
Irene Fowler, militant trade unionist, who has spent a lifetime at the conveyer belt, is always in the forefront of the struggle when labour troubles erupt.
Janine Clark, fresh from university, is the personnel officer who puts the management's view.
Jill Smith is a factory hand who doesn't give a hoot for union or management.
