ABOUT THE EVENT
On October 24, 1975 90% of the women of Iceland walked off the job and out of their homes, refusing to work, cook, or take care of the children. They brought their country to a standstill and catapulted Iceland to the “best place in the world to be a woman” today. Perfectly timed for release in celebration of the strike’s 50th anniversary, the film’s message about the collective power of women to transform their society inspires viewers to reimagine the possible!
Welcome remarks by Emmy award-winning filmmaker Pamela Hogan and Hrafnhildur Gunnarsdóttir.
Runtime: 70min.
Language: English.
