Mary & the Miners: Child Labour

Curated by ACT

It's 1841 and Mary Watkins is 10 years old and works in a coalmine. She takes us through her day, introducing us to her friend and three brothers who work in the mine alongside their father. This beautifully crafted animation was based on the real life testimonies of child miners in the 19th century. [6:13]
