Documentary. "A blacksmith is seen labouring at his forge, shaping nails from single strands of steel rods. The scene shifts from this peaceful setting to the roar of a 20th-century nail mill, where banks of machines draw, cut, and pound the steel rods faster than the eye can follow. These diametrically opposed scenes emphasize the changed relationship between the individual and his work." (NFB description)
