At the beging of the new year the fur treatment factory Danpels is still running, and the heavy mink smell hits you already in the canteen. On the radio, a Lithuanian version of ‘Sweet Dreams’ plays with Eurythmics. Half of the employees at Danpels are seasonal workers from Lithuania and Ukraine. Here they are peeling the last 680,000 mink that Danpels managed to get from breeders from all over the country.
