Handbags and Belts (from rubber tubes)

Hi Everyone,

Here's an interesting piece of film about a young English woman called Katcha Bilek who produces fashion accessories made out of recycled materials. Using everyday items such as old car tyres, Katcha has developed a unique range of handbags, belts and furniture. In the piece below, we see her looking for financial backing from some entrepreneurs (like on "The Dragon's Den").
