Who Cares

Is it love or unpaid work?

Care work is worldwide still mainly shouldered by women. Why? How can we change that? What if we calculate its real value? And should we all work less and care more? Side by side with Silvia Federici, one of the world’s leading feminist thinkers, the filmmaker discovers unexpected solutions to the universal care crisis and her own personal family case. A film about one of the most burning issues of our time. A film that generates courage – to care, to connect, to change.
