This entertaining and eye-opening film follows economist Noreena Hertz as she tries to pull off an extraordinary challenge: to persuade all 556 Premiership footballers to give a day’s wages on May 13th, the last weekend of the season, to a nurses’ hardship fund. Noreena’s quest unlocks unexpectedly moving contributions from leading footballing figures; and she meets nurses whose struggles demonstrate how the profession is in crisis.
