Released to mark 100 years of women's suffrage in New Zealand, Bread & Roses tells the story of pioneering trade unionist, politician and feminist Sonja Davies (1923 - 2005) who rose to prominence in the 1940s and 50s. Directed by Gaylene Preston and co-written by Graeme Tetley, the acclaimed three-hour film was created for a dual cinema/television release. Australian actor Genevieve Picot (Davies) and Mick Rose (as her husband) were awarded for their roles at 1994’s TV Awards. This excerpt sees Davies take direct action to protest closure of a Nelson railway.

It doesn't seem to be available on DVD from Aro Video at the moment, they have VHS for sale though.
You can order this online from Aro Video [http://www.arovideo.co.nz/film.php?FilmID=2193] and I'm not sure about showing it in a classroom, but I think if you buy the DVD then that's ok.

How could a purchase a DVD of the full movie and would it be all right to share the DVD in a classroom setting?
