“The struggle to become something or someone .. to succeed in ones profession or dream/pursuit. And if you are a woman … well the struggle can be even worse. Especially in some countries and situations. Not that we have reached real equality anywhere, but in some countries it is even worse than in others, when it comes to women being able to work however they want to.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThat is just the basis, just one of the points the movie is making. Psychologically speaking there is more to it. Great central performance, great persistence, great fight for what she believes in. And really fun and interesting side stories of the … side characters overall. A nice little movie/drama, that you will like if you are into low budget character studies.”
