SYNOPSIS

From housewives in their early thirties to fifty-something women preparing for their twilight years, a variety of women were asked, ¡°What is the meaning of money to women?¡± This question serves as the basis for this far ranging ¡®interview documentary¡± whose scope overflows into issues of domestic labor, joint ownership, the raising of children, and employment opportunity. Not a theory-based critique but rather the real voices of women with their countless different insights, experiences, and encounters, this documentary provides a fresh perspective on the role and position of women within society. One woman answers, ¡°What is money to women? It means power.¡± By examining the meaning of money, Economic Women highlights the power dynamic operating in gender discrimination. (Nam In-young)
