This is the underlying message of the 2017 Equal Pay Day short film and a campaign, launched today by the Party of European Socialists in partnership with the sp.a women’s organisation zij-kant and ABVV, the socialist union of Belgium. The film was officially presented to the media and the public in Brussels today.
The quirky film depicts the experiences of a young girl who is sent out to work at the age of ten, after her father learns about the gender pay gap in Europe and is determined to redress the balance. After hitting the job market in the US, she encounters the US president in an unexpected way.
