@AreitoWatter the woman is saying, we get paid 200 rupees (arround one euro and 70 cents) for 3 days work. and you know the price of one good worked piece is around 500 euro to 5000 sometimes.

@AreitoWatter i remember, i bought a shirt with bead work just on collar worth 5500 rupees in pakistan. later what i did, i bring a poor well well experienced worker to my house, withing three days he made me many of those collar with very very little price. and i paid him 4 time more then he use to get paid from his employer and free food and tea. and was very happy. and he told me to open a shop in pakistan so he and his other frinds can work for me. it is so sad. they should get paid more.

@QurratFilms Qurat-ul-Aain I watched another short documentary you made about Balouchi kaam. I am from the US and of Pakistani origin and it is wonderful to know there are people out there trying to document this priceless art. I would encourage you to film and document this heritage so it is not lost with time. Pakistan has such a versatile embroidery industry, I wish I had your talents and resources to document it all and write a book about the hand embroidery of Pakistan
