Director’s Statement

Through an insightful look at what daily conditions female-identified low-wage gig workers face, Mujeres Atrevidas will illuminate the key role worker centers such as the female-led Workers Justice Project can have in cities and states across the country where new labor policies and standards (such as domestic workers’ bills of rights and higher minimum wages) are being enacted. Ultimately, the film will testify to the ability of these female workers to sustain and improve their lives, as they reflect on questions regarding New York City’s future and its relationship to labor.
