The owners of an Italian textile factory sell the majority of their shares to a corporation. Apparently, no workers will be laid off, they can feel safe. But there is a small clause in the agreement the new ownership wants the factory council to sign. Eleven women will decide for themselves and as representatives of their colleagues whether to accept the proposal or not. Little by little, the debate becomes heated and their stories, hopes and memories emerge.

I proprietari di un’azienda tessile italiana cedono la maggioranza della proprietà a una multinazionale. Sembra che non siano previsti licenziamenti, operaie e impiegate possono tirare un sospiro di sollievo. Ma c'è una piccola clausola nell'accordo che la nuova proprietà vuole far firmare al Consiglio di fabbrica. Undici donne dovranno decidere per sé e in rappresentanza di tutta la fabbrica, se accettare la richiesta dell’azienda. A poco a poco il dibattito si accende, ad emergere prima del voto finale saranno le loro storie, fatte di speranza e ricordi.
