Movie Summary
Her Job takes a sensitive look at how work and autonomy can change a person’s outlook.
Panayiota gets for the first time a job as a cleaner in an attempt to support her family. Even though in her work environment she faces a ruthless system of exploitation, she spends the happiest period of her life so far. Unfortunately, this is not to last for long as the first layoffs are to arrive soon.
The human dimension of the socioeconomic turmoil of contemporary Greece is distilled into a simple and very effective story of one woman’s employment and unlikely liberation.
