Workers at the Karachi Pearl Continental Hotel have been struggling for seven years for trade union recognition at this luxury hotel in Pakistan. Union leaders have been threatened, harassed, arrested and falsely imprisioned. Each year, the night before May Day, workers and their families gather for a torch rally. This video shows the rally held on 30 April 2007 (language used in the film is Urdu). For more information on the Pearl Continental workers struggle see:
