THE HISTORY OF WORK

Documentary- Feature

USA

​

When did we become a society that works so much, and in a way that benefits the workforce so little?
The History of Work unravels our modern relationships to work and contextualizes our capitalist work systems by examining how the nation’s past has created a foundation for
the present. From early humans to the Industrial Revolution to the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ll see how workplace structures and norms evolved into what we experience at work today.
This documentary aims to shed light on how we got here, expose you to new perspectives and take you on a journey of discovery about our relationship to work—and how we can change it.
