NOTES

Title from title frames

Orna is the mother of three young children with a husband struggling to start his own restaurant. To help support her family Orna returns to the workplace, landing a job with a former army superior, Benny who is now a successful real estate developer. While Orna embraces her new position and tries to balance its demands with her home life, she begins to experience escalating sexual harassment from her boss. Her rapid rise through the ranks and her increasing financial success seem to parallel a pattern of predatory behavior which ultimately brings her career and marital relationship to the brink. This timely and devastating story is expertly told by long time feminist filmmaker Michal Aviad. Official selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. "*It is a story we've likely heard of or seen before, yet under Michal Aviad's sympathetic lens, it's one that stands out with a sense of urgency.*" - Monica Castillo, **RogerEbert.com**
