The film is shot at Havana's psychiatric hospital, Mazorra, where mainly the chronically mentally ill are treated through a rehabilitation program that aims to integrate them into society through occupational therapy. The film tells about the treatment methods used and the underlying attitude, which can also be taken as an expression of Cuban society's view of humanity.

Greenland is in the middle of a process of industrial development, a stark contrast to the former way of life. In the film, which was shot in Sisimiut (Holsteinsborg), a group of Greenlandic women talk about their work and their position in the workplace, about the need to organize themselves, to stand shoulder to shoulder in order to improve working conditions and wages. The women, working as shrimp pillers, tell with bitterness, but also humor, about their lives and the double work that they have to endure. The 'royal' hand-picked Greenlandic prawns are viewed here in relation to the repeated abdominal infections the women suffer from, and their political struggle related to labor and gender.
