What if all women refused and went on a care strike?

Elin is in her early twenties and lives with her mother in a wellness hotel. During the lockdown, she became an influencer, and since then, she has been confronted with misogynistic hate online. Nuri comes from precarious circumstances and lacks a formal education. He now tries to make a living as a bicycle courier, hospital orderly, and food delivery driver. Late capitalism has a firm grip on him. Ruth is in her late fifties. After the death of her disabled son, she returned to work as a nurse in the hospital. Every day, she pushes her limits, and her sense of duty seems inexhaustible. One Sunday, all three find themselves in an unforeseen situation: in front of the hospital where Ruth and Nuri work, women are lying motionless, in silent protest.

It is the beginning of a revolt in which women no longer do what they have always done. Suddenly, everything that our system is built upon is called into question. Will Elin, Nuri, and Ruth seize the opportunity for change?
