After Work

Erik Gandini / Sweden, Norway, Italy / 2023 / 81 min

What if you never had to work again? This gripping, thought-provoking documentary journeys across four continents to explore how work defines our identity—and what happens when it no longer does. From forced computer shutdowns in South Korea to state-paid jobs in Kuwait, union fights in the U.S., and endless holidays in Sweden, it asks: is there more to life than the grind? With sharp humor and deep insight, it questions the future of labor, purpose, and what it truly means to live in a world where work may soon be obsolete.
