is this a movie released this year?
For sure you got my interest in this one, love to see it.
It always strikes me its just very recent men and women are considered equal by law. But before all this happened, we've seen more than a few examples of women taking the roles of what was considered to be the job for men, and only for men. Like Antonia. But also like Curie, a scientist I have great admirations for.
In the recent TV aired series about Fokker and KLM (the Dutch airliner), I've become familiar with the old fashioned thinking back in the 1920's, 30's and 40's. The wife of the KLM Director, also wanted to work, and contribute to society by adding value other than running the household. At times, she helped her husband to keep his job and create business opportunities for KLM, like the deal between KLM and the Dutch government. When she wasn't in her husband life, KLM would not have existed anymore. But, she was not allowed to do anything else other than manage the household, as per her husband. I still don't understand what must have gone through the minds of all these men, who believed they are better than women.
Fortunately, some strong women showed the world they matter as well and they can do men jobs as good or even better than men can do.
