Josey Aimes flykter fra et brutalt ekteskap bare for å ende på en mannsdominert arbeidsplass der kvinner blir trakassert daglig. Hun bestemmer seg for å gjøre noe drastisk. Kampen mot overmakten kan bli historisk, med følger for hele USA. Hun tar med seg de to barna og kjører hjem til foreldrene sine i en liten gruveby nord i Minnesota. For å tjene noenlunde gode penger, begynner Josey å arbeide i jerngruven på stedet, en hjørnesteinsbedrift som har livnært generasjoner av arbeidsfolk. Tradisjonene har sementert et mannsdominert, røft miljø med inngrodd skepsis til kvinner som forlater kjøkkenbenken. Josey og de få andre kvinnene blir ikke bare behandlet nedlatende, men med åpenlys forakt. Kvinnene prøver etter beste evne å legge panser på følelsene i frykt for å komme på kant med kolleger og ledelse. Men Josey vil ikke la seg kue. Hun bestemmer seg for å gå til sak mot gruveselskapet. Oppstyret som følger vil endre livet til Josey og hennes nærmeste - og amerikansk rettspraksis.
