Why watch this film?

Technology is changing the way we deal with demand for services, and also with people's relationship to work. In the so-called "uberization" of the economy, you don't need to own a car to get around the city - and the driver doesn't have a boss. But how much does this precarize and intensify the work itself? What is the obligation of the companies, almost all of them technology-based, that exploit these services often taking advantage of loopholes in legislation? It is an important and relevant debate that the documentary 'GIG: The Uberization of Work' brings in a very didactic way.
