  "account": "Annika Thier, a 28-year-old woman, spends her days working on her father's farm in Rosenberg, Baden-Wurttemberg. She tends to 3,800 pigs on a sprawling 120-hectare land. Thier often feels like a maid cleaning hotel beds for new guests, as her charges are literal pigs. At 2:30 PM, a delivery truck is due to arrive, carrying fresh piglets for the stables. Thier, with her blonde hair and perfect winged eyeliner, carries plastic containers filled with straw across the stalls, moving from one barn to the next. For the past seven years, Thier has worked on the farm without receiving any salary. She has never taken a vacation and has worked tirelessly. However, Thier still wishes to take over the farm, despite the financial struggles. The challenge lies in her father's inability to finance the farm alone.",
