Synopsis

In a series of interviews with Louise Toupin, groundbreaking feminist thinkers Silvia Federici and Mariarosa Dalla Costa return to the movement they co-founded in 1972--the International Feminist Collective. The feminist collective originated the radical and controversial demand for wages for housework. From these powerful roots, they continue to explain how their political thinking developed over time, formulating an intersectional critique of neoliberal capitalism with a crisis of social reproduction at its heart.
