Women's work

A peasant couple argues over who does the harder work. They decide to switch roles: the wife goes to the fields, and the husband stays home to take care of the house. Very quickly, the man is overwhelmed by the domestic chores, and chaos ensues. This comic fable, inspired by a Russian folktale, pokes fun at gender stereotypes and reminds us that every job has its challenges.
