Working Woman

Orna is 33 and has 3 children. Her husband just opened the small restaurant. She must bring home a salary. Orna starts working for Benny, the owner of a real estate company.  Highly motivated, Orna becomes Benny’s right-hand person, and does extremely well. Benny appreciates Orna and promotes her, but is also attracted to her. He continually tries to seduce her. Orna is wrestling to continue her work, which is crucial for her family, especially since her husband's business is failing, while rejecting Benny. When finally Benny does not control himself, Orna’s world is shattered. She has to battle the humiliation, shame, guilt and most of all the fear of unemployment. Even her loving husband turns his back on her. Orna has no choice but to pull herself together and fight for work and a sense of self-worth.
