| Description: | PEEPS THROUGH THE WINDOW OF THE WORLD (NO. 72) girl bricklayers Also in Thanet we see three young women building a house. One carries bricks on a hod as she climbs up a ladder. The others are seen laying bricks. They stop for lunch and sit on the scaffolding to have a cup of tea from a thermos flask and a cigarette. Shot of men climbing over the wreck of a house that has fallen down - the inference being that the girls cannot build a house properly. | |
