Welfare – Sozialfürsorge in New York: Directed by Frederick Wiseman. WELFARE shows the nature and complexity of the welfare system in sequences illustrating the staggering diversity of problems that constitute welfare: housing, unemployment, divorce, medical and psychiatric problems, abandoned and abused children, and the elderly. These issues are presented in a context where welfare workers as well as clients struggle to cope with and interpret the laws and regulations that govern their work and life.

“I am so glad they are finally letting Jessica develop more this season beyond her broken and traumatic past so we can see a new and welcome side to her character. Very few superhero series have this privilege of being able to separate the u0026#39;superu0026#39; from the u0026#39;herou0026#39;, that it gives this series a unique flavour and is a reason it will always stand out for me even once itu0026#39;s over. Despite this being another slow and light-on-action episode, it continues to build on Jessicau0026#39;s relationships in a natural and organic way that Iu0026#39;m intrigued to see whatu0026#39;s next for her.”
