The BBC document, Blood, Sweat, and T-Shirt, seems pretty much like the movie of the book, Travels With T-Shirt In A Global Economy. Both of them are about the process of discovering how T-shirts are made.
The book mainly focus on how shirts are printed where it is made, but never include where else it is involved. The shirts would have been flying back and fourth just to get the materials.
The movie is mostly about how shirts are made, or how the labors work. Most T-shirts don't cost much, but the hard work behind the process actually costs more than what the label says.

I can't wait to see the rest of your analysis Eugene! But before you write any more you may want to change a couple of things in your blog entry:
The book actually does talk about so much more than how T shirts are printed. It discusses how the garment industry has been globalized and what that means for various economies and for labor but it uses the T shirt as a departure point. And secondly, the movie isn't just about how T shirts are made but how clothing is made in general.
So I know you have a lot more to say. Just clean up what you've written thus far and let us in on your thoughts!
