We can't function without them, so why can't we pay them better? Key workers across the economy take care of the elderly and the sick, work in fields in poor conditions, and keep towns fed by transporting truckloads of produce. Those who matter the most somehow get valued the least. Some are now pushing to end this social injustice by introducing a new philosophy of work.

We can't function without them, so why can't we pay them better?

Born in 1888 in Charente, Jean Monnet did not go to university. A cognac merchant, he trained on the job in the City of London. During World War Two, he managed to convince Churchill to merge France and Britain to defeat the Nazis; though the Vichy government refused. When the war ended, his brilliant brain immediately got to work on how to rebuild the continent. He honed the "Monnet method": the art of finding a solution that benefits everyone, with compromises on all sides.

One summer day in 1963, 250,000 people marched to Capitol Hill to demand equal rights between black and white Americans. Martin Luther King, speaking at the event, orginally hadn't intended to talk about his dream. But at the very last moment, he did. And the result was legendary.

Christine Hug is the first transgender high-ranking member of the Swiss armed forces, something that would have been unthinkable just a decade ago. Lieutenant Colonel Hug invites us into her world, telling us about the path that led her where she is today. Alhough transgender people are more visible in society today, even in institutions like the army, this is a journey that often remains painful and difficult for both them and the people around them.
This programme of the Swiss channel SSR SRG is part of The European Collection, a joint initiative of European public media (ARD, ARTE, France Télévisions, SSR SRG and ZDF), coordinated by ARTE.

We follow the journey of Christine Hug, the first transgender high-ranking member of the Swiss army.
