After escaping an abusive marriage, Josie Aimes returns to her childhood home, seeking stability and an opportunity to rebuild her life. However, what she finds in the iron mines is a hostile work environment filled with machismo, where female workers are subjected to constant abuse and harassment from their colleagues.
Despite the risks, Josie decides to join her colleagues in the fight against the toxic culture that prevails in the mine.
