This case did not reach an out-of-court settlement until 1991, which rewrote the legal history. North Country is based on the actual events of the Lois Jensen case. Yes, but the film made a lot of plots, and the heroine's name was changed to Josey Aimes. In fact, Lois Jensen himself is not a tall and beautiful fashion model like Charlize Theron, nor does he act high-profile.

However, this is not a court documentary, but a group of discriminatory and conservative women who dare not come out to support her. Story of struggle among the people.
New Zealand director Niki Caro directed the critically acclaimed Whale Rider three years ago, and North Country is her first Hollywood movie. Will the performances of Charlize Theron and Frances McDormand get them to the Oscars for the second time?
