This riveting drama about workplace sexual harassment is perfectly timed to speak to themes in today’s news. It centers on Orna, a young Israeli mother of three whose successes on the job are accompanied by increasingly overt advances by her boss, a luxury real estate developer not used to hearing the word “no.” Orna’s chef husband is preoccupied with his struggling restaurant and has limited capacity for sympathy. Who can she tell? Perceptive and empathetic, Working Woman offers a layered narrative and complex, humane portraits of all three main characters. Writer/director Michal Aviad has been a feminist political filmmaker since the outset of her career and is widely acclaimed for her portraits of Israeli society seen through the prism of gender. Orna’s struggle, in particular the little indignities that she decides to let pass without rocking the boat (such as comments on her clothes and hair), will strike universal sparks of recognition in viewers all over the world.
