For the first time in her life, the housewife Panayiota takes a paid job. She works as a cleaning lady in a newly opened shopping center to feed her family, which is suffering due to the economic crisis. Although she is ruthlessly exploited by the company, for the first time she experiences a sense of self-empowerment through her own salary. With the new colleagues Panayiota experiences the happiest time of her thus far dull life until the first layoffs happen. Her Job tells the story of the emancipation of a woman in the context of the crisis as both a collapse and a new beginning.
