50|50 looks at the frustrations and triumphs that couples still encounter as they try to find a balance between raising children and working. Each story unveils the obstacles and prejudices that men and (mostly) women still have to overcome. This documentary sheds light on the roads to conciliation, giving voice to ambitious, career-oriented women, but also to couples who are struggling to have children or to share their unpaid domestic duties fairly. 50 | 50 evaluates the advancements accomplished while also questioning whether the ongoing progress is sufficient in light of the times we live in.
