Und alle so still

In the organizer's words:

"No more fleeing, no more giving way ... we stay. We demand the space we deserve."

They lie motionless on the streets: Women, hundreds of them, and more every day. United in silent protest, they let the world feel what happens when they are no longer prepared to do what is expected of them in their professional and private lives. Their refusal soon triggers chaos, revealing the extent to which our system is based on exploitation and overwork. In the midst of this incipient revolt, the paths of Elin, a success-obsessed influencer, Nuri, whose precarious living conditions force him to take any job, and Ruth, a hospital nurse who, full of self-sacrifice, tries to counter the devouring decay. After Die Wut, die bleibt, director Jorinde Dröse continues her collaboration with Mareike Fallwickl, who in this dystopian-utopian novel poses the big question of how circumstances can be changed.
