Les Hommes de Fer - Episode 1

Men of Iron bears witness to a turning point in European history, a period that saw its economy take off and then develop at a pace never before seen in human history. Western societies underwent profound transformations: not only their material living conditions but also the social relationships between their inhabitants. Through numerous wars, they imposed their economy, laws, and values ​​on the rest of the world. The driving force behind this evolution was an industrial revolution, at the heart of which was the mastery of iron and steel: the steel industry. This story is told through the eyes of the men who made it happen, workers and bosses alike. We interviewed the heirs, the retirees who experienced "the golden age," as well as their colleagues who took over in India.
