Mit der Aktion feministischer Aktivisten setzten die weiblichen Anwohner der Insel auf ungewöhnliche Weise ein Zeichen.

00:04It's National Women's Day there, and the women are refusing to work in even their own homes.
00:09If women don't work, everything collapses.
00:12We are going to show them that we can stop this society.
00:17The man thought it was ridiculous.
00:19Oh, you are so silly.
00:22Goodbye.
00:24The beds were not made, dishes not washed, the telephone system went dead, theaters did
00:29not open, most of the schools were closed.
00:31Well, it didn't come to blows, but we got very harsh words, mostly from men.
00:37They were thought to be destroying the role of the housewife and putting society on its head.
00:45It's like a revolution, you know.
00:47I saw the flags coming up.
00:51And it was beautiful.
00:55The men, they called it the Long Friday.
