The Invisible Worker
Director
This documentary analyzes the problem of domestic work in three instances: That of the housewife who performs all the indispensable work without which no one can live and whose utility is to reproduce the power to work, to study or simply the survival of society as a whole. The second instance, that of the domestic worker, the one who goes into someone else's house, almost always comes from the countryside and receives a salary for her work. This woman also suffers from the hostility of her job, isolation and loneliness, and in many cases, discrimination. And the third, the domestic worker by the day, on whom the hardest work falls and who is totally unprotected especially in old age. In all three modalities work has no social recognition. Women are classified as economically inactive, alongside the disabled and beggars. But the most important reflection of this video is that domestic work is a job that is not shared by both sexes; this has been traditionally assigned to women.
Looking for Ways
Director
In Bogotá there are several areas that do not have any support from the State and their people must struggle to provide for themselves. In these communities there is no infrastructure, no development programs in public services, and total neglect in the area of social security. The problem derives from a process of accelerated urbanization that has overwhelmed any planning attempt. No one is more aware of this reality than the people who suffer from it; so, they decided to organize themselves and with imagination, with daring, and above all with decision, diverse groups face and solve their problems themselves. Education, health, and recreation are some of the sectors where the inhabitants of Bogotá work and seek ways to progress.
And What Does Your Mother Do?
Director of Photography
AND WHAT DOES YOUR MOTHER DO? is a humorous film which cleverly uses the technique of speeded-up action to expose basic inequalities built into the traditional family structure, which lay the bulk of responsibility and pressure on women.
