+++ Today already from 6 pm +++ What if every woman just took a day off ... Documentary / IS, US 2024 / Directors: Pamela Hogan & Hrafnhildur Gunnarsdóttir / 70 min. / OV with German subtitles
When 90% of Iceland’s women walked off the job and out of their homes one morning in 1975, they brought their country to its knees and catapulted Iceland to the forefront of today's global fight for gender equality. Unexpectedly funny, laced with evocative animation and powerfully told by the women who lived it – this is the true story of 12 hours that launched a revolution.
The film was released in 2025, just in time for the 50th anniversary of the strike, and its message about the collective power of women to change their society encourages us to rethink what is possible.
Entrance: from 5.30 pmStart: 6 pmAdmission: €3/€5
The film will be shown in its original language (Icelandic, English) with German subtitles.
