“The colleague can be very pushy to women. So you stay at a distance. “–” It happens that a woman says no and thinks yes. That happens to us men all time. ” If re is 2017 a series that reflects MeToo debate, n it is top of lake – China Girl.

In sequel to China Girl, sexism is more hidden, but more difficult to combat: Elisabeth Moss (since her Emmy for Maid’s tale The official feminist of series World) is punished by her colleagues mainly by non-observance and her boss shares Her beloved Miranda as a colleague too (charming: Miranda is played by Gwendoline Christie, imposing Brienne of Tarth from Game of Thrones). Again, Commissioner identifies in case of a dead pregnant woman, this time it is an Asian prostitute who is stranded in a suitcase on coast of Sidney. Robin, however, is involved in case himself. She recovers her daughter Mary (Jane Campion daughter Alice Englert), who had released her as a baby for adoption. The 17-year-old rebels against her academic-elitist Adoptivelternhaus (Nicole Kidman and Ewen Leslie as a helicopter parent) and is a German wannabe-communist (David Dencik), who plays a dubious role within a brol.

At some point, this is about important question of how far women have right to ir own bodies – and all that is in it. (Carolin Stroebele)
