A young woman from provincial Pennsylvania defies expectations to become a stenographer in New York City during the early 1900s. Navigating gendered workplace dynamics, economic hardship, and her own romantic yearnings, she wrestles with what it means to have both independence and fulfillment.

The Job reveals the emotional and societal cost of female ambition in an era that discouraged it, portraying a portrait of feminist resolve long before the movement had a name.
