She's difficult to work with: an animal farm

As a female professional in banking industry, I've seen "difficult to work with" operates as workplace slut-shaming for women. This series stages surreal office scenes to visualise the bias. It questions: is she truly difficult, or are we just unsettled by women who refuse to shrink into submission?
