  "account": "Annika Thier's life resembles that of a maid attending to a hotel's newly arrived guests, except her guests are pigs. At 2:30 PM, she rushes to unload a plastic container filled with fresh piglets for the stables – time is of the essence. With her blonde hair and precise makeup, Thier dons her grey clogs and green work uniform, carefully moving through her father's farm in Rosenberg, Baden-Württemberg, where she tends to 3,800 pigs on a sprawling 120-acre plot.\n\nFor the past seven years, Thier hasn't received a single penny of pay. She hasn't even taken a single day off. During the morning, she works at the pig breeding institute in Boxberg, nearby, as the farm alone cannot sustain her livelihood. Despite the financial strain, Thier remains committed to inheriting the farm. But why?",
