Sinekatalog’s take

Lindsay Anderson's short documentary follows the porters and traders of Covent Garden market through a night of work. Warm, humane and poetic, it won the Grand Prix at Venice and is a classic of the Free Cinema movement.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
