The title “De varme hænder (Hot hands!)” – in English, “The warm hands (Hot hands!)” – refers to the media coverage of the striking nurses, where the nickname “The warm hands” was widely used by politicians, journalists, media personas etc. to describe them.
The warm hands are working hands.
The hands of physical work.
The supporting hands,
the caring hands,
the underpaid hands.
The hands have found each other.
They have become so warm(so hot).
They ignite.
