Post Description

Poet Roger McGough narrates the story of how a simple 
invention - the shipping container - changed the world 
forever and forced Britain into the modern era of 
globalisation. With a blend of archive and modern-day 
filming, the impact of the box is told through the eyes of 
dockers, seafarers, ship spotters, factory workers and 
logisticians. From quayside in container ports to onboard 
enormous ships, the documentary explains how the 
container has transformed our communities, economy and 
coastline.
