Director's Statement

1) Solidarity: What I want to know is not only the strong solidarity between Cort/Cortek workers and musicians but also connection between life of workers and that of musicians. How, and from where they linked.
2) Globalization: Many musicians admire Fender and Ibanez. If there has been pain of workers underneath the fabulous name of Cort, aren’t we responsible for it? The circulation of capital, we might have been accomplices to it.
