Certainly timely in 2017! I don't remember when this case was going on, but it's great to see it after the fact. Nice performances, but it seemed to lack some theatrical passion which would result in a 5-star rating.

Good to see a realiastic movie on sexual harassment in the workplace where the majority are men. I worked construction jobs for 2 years in the 70s and experienced very similar conditions. I just wanted to earn a decent wage too.

This movie really helps to see the world in a different perspective, the reality that there was sexual harassment in the workplace and women could''t do anything about it if they didn't have the support from others. Glad that women came forth from the Northern Country.
