"A day without women" - documentary film on the women's strike in Iceland

An event organised by the Equal Opportunities Officer of the City of Greifswald, the University and the University Medical Centre

On 24 October 1975, more than 90 percent of women in Iceland stopped working: they didn't go to the office, cook or look after the children. The country came to a standstill. The strike was intended to show how important women are in society for the good of all. As a result, Iceland became the best place in the world to be a woman. Today, the activists of that time tell exciting and amusing stories about this momentous day.
Admission free, donations welcome.
