A provocative docu-drama portraying two cases of female discrimination experienced by separate women from unrelated backgrounds. Jessica, a newspaper photographer is subjected to a campaign of sexual harassment and Letitia is denied a promotion and subjected to humiliating racist comments from her colleagues.
