"Hold The Line offers a rare and insightful look into a union, at an profoundly important and controversial time in Australia's political history. As ETU Southern States Branch Secretary, Dean Mighell, points out 'It's been pattern bargaining that's delivered the increases, the benefits and the shorter hours. If we break that pattern - if we do lesser deals at an enterprise - it'll all unravel. You've got to hold the line.'
This is a documentary for the times. It's a film for Julia Gillard and those in the ALP who oppose pattern bargaining. It's a film for those who paint unionists as bullies. In this documentary we see the real face of unionism. And what a beautiful thing it is!"
