Ein Tag ohne Frauen
When 90 per cent of Icelandic women walked off the job and left their homes one autumn morning in 1975 because they refused to work, cook and look after the children, they brought their country to a standstill and catapulted Iceland to the ‘best place in the world to be a woman’.
In A DAY WITHOUT WOMEN, the protagonists of this radical act tell their own story and the story of what the country was like before. Archive material and animations as well as the voices of the protagonists, who are still amused today, whet the appetite for subversive resistance: a film about the collective power of women to change their society.
