Question of Will 02
We can loosely understand the term intermezzo as a planned activity or pause deliberately "inserted" into life or work and associated, for example, with the need for rest, the necessity of transformation, a change of direction, and an escape from the rut of everyday life, everyday life, overcoming feelings of unfulfillment, the desire to help, move forward in life, or get involved in something new.
We would like to outline the conditions for a new sensibility and redefine our needs and future actions, based not only on the logic of endless production and consumption, exhausting fragile ecosystems. Last but not least, through this joint rearrangement of basic and small stones, we try to actively integrate non-growth strategies into our lives.
Considering the changing nature of work under global capitalism and the role of female labour, the film ‘Some Women, Other Women and all the Bittermen’ (2014, dir. Rehana Zaman) is a contentious and highly engaging adoption of the conventions of British soap opera place alongside footage documenting meetings of migrant women in the UK at the self-led organisation Justice for Domestic Workers in Leeds.
