It’s fascinating that they are men.

the peace and freedom there, thats priceless.

Azzedine a god ? At one point he was looking for a new head of his workrooms and I was invited to go for an interview. He was charming enough but when he began telling me that they were 'all one bog family' and that they often ate together at night and worked weekends as they loved it so much I immediately left ! I mean, zero private life, basically a slave working too many hours for small pay because HE was such a man.

I worked in high fashion and visited many embroidery workshops where only men and boys work. The women do the cleaning, food and packaging. There is now a famous embroidery school in Mumbai that teaches women and girls and they work for companies like Dior. I used to watch the boys go to hook sharpeners during lunch break to have their embroidery hooks sharpened. They are great fun and love their job. I had some amazing things done in some of the workshops.

How is a doll made of stone save someone's soul? I don't understand it.

Please refer to this world heritage site by its correct name Naqsh-e Jahan Square, and not the name imposed by the criminal Islamic Regime. #IRGCterrorists

Many Chinese companies have moved their handbag businesses to Italy so they can exploit the immigrant labor and say their products are made in Italy. Look up Montblanc and Dior.

Looks like a day in the life of locomotive 1772.

The 'embroidery on wood' as presented here is awful, it looks like that cheap pegboard dad hangs his pliers and screwdrivers on.

Avantika is FINE!!

Much respect to all of you! You create beauty that reaches to the ends of the earth! Your craft has not given itself over to the ugliness of other art forms>

wonderful how blending cultures and religions can create beauty the arabs did wonderful things across europe

This reminds me my old time I was working in this industry and every craftsman was Muslim they had so much respect for me as I used to treat them like my own family. Sadly I had to leave the country and changed my career. God it did bring back my memories.

I am a textile artist and work in New Orleans. I am 76. I find that textile, beading, feathers and embroidery keep my hands nimble and my mind sharp..

Most of the comments are totally focused on money. Money is needed to sustain life of course, but it's not even the more important part. These embroiderers are bringing their art and considerable skill to the world. If they are recognized as artisans by the world, then people who buy their products may understand that it is made by people and not machines(most people in the west have no clue about how the things they buy are made). the value will go up. The appreciation and gratitude will surely follow. The pride and status will go up. In the end, they will be paid more and the products will be taken better care of by the buyers who will perhaps pass items down to their children. Lives will be enriched.

Total exploitation of cheap indian craftsmen

Maybe not translsted material isn't important that's why They didn't translate it.

Good work men, awesome. Great doc. Note to producers, might be good idea to include captions.

I hope everyone making negative comments is only buying t shirts that cost more than 50 dollars and does not own a single item of fast fashion clothing, since you profess to show concern for the sweatshop labour in India.

This was a great video. Very interesting and taught me about India and its people. Thank you.

Max has done an excellent job in at least organisating the workers under one roof and giving them the sence of job security,salary,bank accounts and maybe some other incentives. The work shop is clean well lit . But i am sure he gets well paid for this work in Paris,Milan and New York. He has to be honest in sharing his profit with these people if not then its exploitation .

A great documentary!!

Not that cool ! Major Strata issues

The wealthy countries need a country like India to ensure they keep raking in their profits. That's why they're actively funding the efforts to keep this skill alive and growing. Meanwhile, who really knows how much those people are actually making unless competition comes in and they have the ability to choose for higher wages.

beautiful! we would love to visit Las' ecolodge! would you please DM me the details <3

Very informative ❤❤

CHEAPEST LABOUR IN THE WORLD.....THEY CAN WORK 20 HOURS A DAY AS LONG AS YOU FEED THEY BETTER THAN A COW.....NOW YOU KNOW WHY THE INDIAN RICH AND LUXURY OVER THE POOR STARVE TO DEATH FAMILIES

Middle man exploitation and Wurooe again exploiting.

555 🥳 “yummyyy”

Personally best craftsmanship, the colors and sequin, due to its philosophies of embracing all.

Way too long. A half hour would have sufficed...

Yeah take these n sell with european fashion house branding as high fashion, earning millions and conveniently removing the names and credit of these artisans

I really appreciate the fact that you consider the real Brittany, not the adminstrative and incomplete version, designed by Paris, without its historical and economic capital city : Nantes ! We want to get that part of our country (yes, we are a country, not a "region" of France !) back, the vast majority of the people in the 5 Breton departements want that, but the continuous plan of the French State has always been to weaken brittany, to exploit it like what it is to France : a colony ! Bevet Breizh dieub ha dizalc'h !!! ( "Long live free and independant Brittany" - in Breton language)

S The embroiders deserve more. Their work is tedious with eyes and neck. Back ache is also problem.

They did not use ginger, garlic and thyme for the rougaille Cod...hmmm

Embroidery was such a huge part of my clothing while I gre up in India. Unfortunately it is losing its sheen with just printed fabric becoming more popular. My mum has a saree with beautiful red flowers embroidered for just Rs.20. Of course this was from the 80s. Unfortunately here in the US, where I live, embroidery is rarely seen on everyday clothing. You are lucky if you can score affordable clothing that is not made of plastic. The variety of textiles and various fabric arts of India is truly unmatched.

I wonder why it’s mostly men that do the embroidery?

Yes. I applauded this French guy. Gusto, creativity, and seeing forward in working conditions and market opportunities . A real entrepreneur. With the ability to adapt. I think he is very rich and I think he deserves it. And I think he sleeps pretty well at night. He is probably loved by his workers. He is a businessman and a decent one. Every time you do a bit better than a government as an entrepreneur, the universe will support you. The problem I see in these comments is "workers:, specifically a lady "worker", from a family of workers in a developed country with "workers'problems" from a developed country who want to transpose and hence cries out bloddy murder to the dynamics in these video. She fails at that. She fails even while speaking the truth. There are holes in her mind, a lack of vision, of the global and natural weel of existance. That and perhaps a lack of education in the weel of global economics. As much as India develops itself in critical conditions, Japan is dying. Where there is no space to sleep in India. Fully made, beautiful homes are empty, abandoned.Entire town are of empty houses. The principle of economics is that you can not transpose. You can only move and follow the opportunities. And what you believe is your goodness may actually be your demise when applied to self and a death sentence when applied somewhere else. At the same time, the world is connected. We are all on this globe connected. With bottlenecks, pits, and graveyards. Like the brave French guy, you got something to say about India ... move to India, and go do your type of price setting there, then learn the inexorable hate of workers when the Japanese bocomes back with - no orders. And may be slowly with temper, balance will re- appear. Beautifull hearts are everywhere. The creator created existence. Reducing prices to a minimum is as powerful as setting them to the highest bidder. They are simply called market dynamics. And it is good to comment about it but : NUANCES, though, should be universal and a matter of good sense and balance!

Passenger train now between chetumal and cancun in quintana roo

an entrepreneur who prioritize and value his workers' well being in return. i wouldn't be surprised how his business was this successful. good job.

This video pisses me off. Hardly any women working in the trade. All men, embellishing garments for wealthy western women that they would not want their own female family members to wear (I have Muslim family members). The whole thing stinks. I would rather see a woman owned fashion business employing female workers who are embellishing clothes that they, as women, would be proud to wear or gift to their family members. Muslim and Indian men's clothes can be very decorative. Why are all these men not making clothes for men?? Instead, they are feeding the corrupt western corporate fashion industry that makes big money selling crap fashions and half naked designs to spoiled and stupid rich women while using these poor Indian men for labour. And the people in the comments will ooh and ahh without any brains cells to analyze what's going on here. Why not have skilled artisans working in the same country the clothes are sold in? Well, we all know the answer to that. Yet, the video portrays Max as Mr. Benevolent when he is just doing what all colonial western corporations do.

whether you have “reason” or not using any type of spiritual magic to harm anyone, whether that be that they wronged you or not, is demonic and not a fair game. your deitys’ power doesn’t have even a quarter amount of strength compared to my Lord Jesus Christ. I find it laughable how ppl really think these fallen angels will help you in the after life. they deceived the slaves back then and they continue to deceive their lineage now, it’s disgusting.

AWESOMENESS ❤ 🙏🏻

It is indeed an eye opening informative perspective by a westerner living in india. Being of indian descent( of the indentured labourers sent to caribbean...another exploitaion kf 1800 british colonial rule) i have always been wowed by indian fabric and fashion. I am so appreciative of skilled work invovled and i think name kf embrioder / artisanl skill should be hifhlighted and rewarded by haute couture fashion So mr max. Seek funds from western desgners to fund the school too And yes o cupational health imoacsts meed ti be covered.. The most amazibg fact i learnt was that men are skilled artisan in this ..whereas in west we think of embriodery as woman thing. Thanks so much for enlightenment

I love watching these artisans. I always wonder......Do the uber-privelaged who swan around with chanel and hermes ever wonder about the humans who's talent made their bag so pretty. I would love to know about these guys. It fascinates me.
