In this film, after an ineffectual marriage, Josey Aimes (Charlize Theron) comes to her father's house. The most core thing that she wants is to find a good job. Therefore, she applies an iron maiden, which is a greatest employing sources, to work thinking her children she has to look after. Despite she is ready for job that requires physical resistance, the place that she has to work is dominant by the men workers so she and other female workers are exposed to an harassment, threat,despising and several things like that. She could not put up with those kind of things, hence she rebels. Also, her boss who is extremely insensitive, expects Josey to face these problems as a man. Showing resistance to these problems results in not only the reaction of the people who keep the control of power, but also the reaction of her family who don't prove her behavior and the reaction of her coward colleagues. In spite of these difficulties, she persuades a lawyer and she litigates a sexual harassment against the iron maiden company which shocks America.
