На фоне панорамы Вены и прекрасного Дуная предстает жизнь аутсайдеров приличного общества – молодых болгарских цыган. Их спортивные кожаные куртки выглядят как доспехи. Подражая Марлону Брандо, они позируют, играют, соблазняют клиентов. Эти парни переехали в Вену в поисках приключений, свободы и легких денег, но нищета толкнула их на торговлю своими телами. Застрявшие в этом темном мире, они проводят ночи, обслуживая клиентов, зачастую одиноких мужчин, живущих в социальном жилье. Они называют это «бизнесом», как бы разграничивая работу и удовольствие. Интересная внешность – их проклятие, и с приближением сумерек начинается их вторая жизнь – ведь надо кормить свои семьи на родине. Однако в чувстве единения они находят утешение. Вместе они чувствуют себя молодыми, азартными и свободными, может быть, первый раз в жизни.

Every season, tens of thousands of migrant farmworkers converge on small communities like Immokalee, Florida where they plant and harvest the food that Americans consume. A vast majority of these workers are undocumented, leaving them at the mercy of the large agribusinesses who hire them, the crew leaders who contract them and the landlords and businesses that profit from the seasonal arrival of migrant workers. Their "undocumented" legal status allows for a system of exploitation that leaves workers and their families to endure conditions and wages that rarely meet international human rights standards.

The vege­ta­bles come from the garden behind the house, the fish comes out of a can, and money for bread is earned at the factory. It’s because of this money that they came here. Women from Turkey stand side-by-side with women form Meck­len­burg at the conveyor belt of a fish-proces­sing factory in Lübeck. Their hands are stained brown, the pungent smell of fish clings to them, and their arms and backs ache. If these jobs were done by men, machines would have been invented long ago to replace them. But female labour is cheap and the women do not complain. They have learned to work – and therein lies the source of their pride. (Source: https://www.artechock.de/film/text/filminfo/g/ge/gefubr.htm)
