Directed by Nick Broomfield
A young Chinese girl from Fujian pays to be smuggled into the UK illegally. Once in the UK she becomes another one of the 3 million migrant workers who are now the bedrock of our British economy. On February 5th 2004, 23 Chinese workers drowned in Morecambe Bay, leaving their familes in China to pay off debts of £500,000.
