'Switching voices and positions of power between the authoritative and the vulnerable, the
subjective and the supposedly objective, 'Things You Should Know' creates a collage of voices and a blurred narrator to reflect on experiences of care, gender and migration. It explores mainly paid - but also unpaid - emotional, care and domestic work performed by women in the everyday and the instrumentalization of women’s love inside capitalism.'
