documentation of craftsmanship
26 June 2015
The preservation of craft and the stories around it are both relevant and fascinating. this film tells the story of several master tailors, separated geographically, but united in mastery of the craft. It honors the dedication and skill required to be a master tailor, and highlights both the loss and in some cases the resurgence of the craft. The film breaks down the complex series of steps required to produce a custom made suit of high quality. Following the practice of three master tailors who eloquently express their fear for the future of the craft, and the loss of skills in a generation not interested in taking the time to apprentice. A thoroughly worthy film, and an enjoyable watch.
