Unfortunately completely uninteresting
lovecervin21 August 2023
I was really excited about this documentary and therefore very disappointed when I finally saw it.

Five very interesting female politicians serving under two global crisis and the results are just emotional garbage about their private lives, kids and childhood. I wanted to know about their ideas, their work, their collaboration, problems they faced as ministers, how they resonate and how they respond to critical question. This documentary gave me nothing.

In example, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Annika Saarikko (minister of finance) is speaking about what she told her son. Who cares? I wanted to know what she thought about the sanctions or how she came to the conclusion to end her party's decade long wish to remain Finnish neutrality.

Unfortunately this documentary is anti-feminist. It does not show that women can be politicians with ideas and actions, it only shows that women are mothers and that is what they want to talk about, even as the heads of governments.
