BIO:
Janis M. Falk, in her first act, raised her family, pursued a business career, and lived large and wide—and now she has something to write about. She is a graduate of both University of Michigan and Northwestern University. Now in her second act, she can often be found kayaking the Great Lakes or pruning lavender plants on her organic farm. Janis was born in Detroit, then took a multiyear tour through Chicago. She and her husband, Jim, currently live in a home they built by combining two 157-year-old log cabins in Door County, Wisconsin.
SYNOPSIS:
In this gritty, cinematic story, hardworking Florence and her best friend,
Basia, are enraged by the poor working conditions in the factory where
they hand-roll cigars. Florence is as reserved and compliant as Basia is
fiery and forthright, but in the face of this injustice, even she reaches
her breaking point. During a time when choices were between bad and
worse, this is an underdog story of a woman who must search for her
voice in order to lead a labor movement against her husband’s violent
efforts to silence her. Will Florence and her husband resolve their conflicts
both inside and outside the home? At what cost?
