Recently my interest in history has been rewarded with the research & development of costumes on a WW2 theme, for a short film - 'Block 66' by Patrice Gablin.
Set in a German concentration camp during the war, it is the story of a young woman, desperate to save the life of her unborn child.
To re-create the prisoners clothing, many metres of the blue striped fabric needed to be printed, cut and made up, and the question that constantly nagged away at me as I worked, was...
'who made the real garments, and under what conditions..?'
International premiere November 26th Paris international Short Film Festival
