Slovenski opis filma:

Po knjižni uspešnici posneta zgodba prinaša navdihujoče sporočilo o neformalnem kodeksu južnjaškega mesta in obnašanju, ki ga s prijateljstvom po sili razmer zamajajo tri junaške ženske.V filmu, posnetem po knjižni uspešnici avtorice Kathryn Stockett, igrajo Emma Stone kot Skeeter, Viola Davis kot Aibileen ter Octavia Spencer kot Minny – tri zelo različne, izjemne temnopolte ženske v ameriškem Misisipiju v 60. letih, ki so s prijateljstvom po sili razmer in s skrivnim literarnim projektom zamajale družbena prepričanja, čeprav na račun lastne varnosti. Iz njihove zveze je nastalo sestrstvo isto mislečih, ki je z junaštvom premagovalo rasne in socialne meje, ter podiralo nekatere mejnike, ki jim je usojeno, da padejo – tudi če to pomeni negotovost pred spremembami za vse krajane nekega mesta. Ganljiva, zajedljiva in navdihujoča zgodba je brezčasni opomnik o tem, kako lahko spremenimo stvari.

Originalni opis filma:

Set in Mississippi during the 1960s, Skeeter (Stone) is a southern society girl who returns from college determined to become a writer, but turns her friends' lives -- and a Mississippi town -- upside down when she decides to interview the black women who have spent their lives taking care of prominent southern families. Aibileen (Davis), Skeeter's best friend's housekeeper, is the first to open up -- to the dismay of her friends in the tight-knit black community. Despite Skeeter's life-long friendships hanging in the balance, she and Aibileen continue their collaboration and soon more women come forward to tell their stories -- and as it turns out, they have a lot to say. Along the way, unlikely friendships are forged and a new sisterhood emerges, but not before everyone in town has a thing or two to say themselves when they become unwittingly -- and unwillingly -- caught up in the changing times.
