The Employee

2026 · 1 season

A slow-building office thriller that turns corporate politeness into quiet menace, watching a woman's hard-won position erode under pressure.

Overview: One day, an unexpected threatening letter was sent to a minister who was on the verge of being promoted to director. Her life—which should have been a resounding success in a male-dominated organisation—began to crumble silently… This is a gripping and entertaining story that explores the meaning of ‘work’!
