In 1972, Jean Gaumy took some of his first photos in a smoked herring factory in Fécamp. Particularly attracted by one of the workshops, that of the women who cut up the fish, he decided to make his first film with them. Some of them have been doing this tedious work for over twenty-five years. All of them are full of enthusiasm, full of a vitality that contrasts with the dirt and difficulties of their work.
