A trailer has dropped for Michal Aviad’s TIFF debuter Working Woman. The film is a nuanced and timely drama about a young woman, mother and wife struggling sexual harassment in the workplace. It is an elegant film that provocatively humanizes all sides of a complicated issue.
Born in Jerusalem, Michal Aviad is an acclaimed and award-winning feminist filmmaker of both documentaries and narrative films. She studied literature and philosophy at Tel Aviv University, and began making films in San Francisco in the 1980’s. Since returning to Israel in 1991, she has continued to write, direct and produce films, and work as an activist for women’s rights.
Watch the full trailer below. We’ll have a full refview of the film after the premiere later next week.
