Historias de cocina
Director of Photography

Tras describir el comportamiento del ama de casa sueca, los científicos quisieron ampliar la investigación más allá de los límites geográficos y de género en los que se habían movido hasta entonces.

Los observadores debían estudiar a sus sujetos durante todo el día, pero sin dirigirles la palabra bajo ningún concepto ni interferir en las tareas de la cocina. (Filmaffinity)
