Childless by Choice? Or By Corporate Design?
Is the modern dream of a career becoming a nightmare for the future of the family? We're told we're "childless by choice," but what if it's actually by corporate design? This documentary investigates the silent war being waged against the family by a work culture that demands total commitment.
We explore the rise of the DINK (Dual Income, No Kids) lifestyle, not as a simple preference, but as a rational response to a hostile economic system. We uncover the brutal reality of the "motherhood penalty"—the measurable financial punishment women face for having children—and how corporate culture is built around an "Ideal Worker" who has no dependents.
From the "996" work culture in China to Japan's "karoshi" (death from overwork) and South Korea's record-low fertility rate, we expose a global crisis. Where the demands of work become absolute, the family is pushed towards collapse. This isn't just about economics; it's about a future facing demographic decline, economic stagnation, and a pandemic of loneliness.
Join us for a deep dive into one of the most critical and unspoken conflicts of our time: the battle for the future of humanity, fought in our performance reviews, our balance sheets, and our homes.
