The Forgotten Space
Those who rule the sea, rule the world. Allan Sekula, perhaps the most prominent photographer, filmmaker and chronicler of modern labour conditions working today sets off with the French director and film historian Noël Burch to explore the sea, the ‘forgotten space', which forms the arena for the globalisation of freight transport and labour.
