History, Drama (USA, India, UAE — 2011)

Veteran maid Aibileen, a widow devastated by the death of her son, takes pride in the 17 children she has helped to raise, but she's hardly fulfilled. That changes when Skeeter returns home after college. Unlike her peers, Skeeter wants to work, so she gets a job as a newspaper columnist. But she really longs to write about Jackson's domestics, so she meets with Aibileen in secret—after much cajoling and the promise of anonymity. When Aibileen's smart-mouthed friend Minny breaches her uptight employer's protocol, Hilly gives her the boot, and she ends up in the employ of local outcast Celia, who can't catch a break due to her dirt-poor origins. After the murder of Medgar Evers, even more maids, Minny among them, bring their stories to Skeeter, leading to a book that scandalizes the town—in a good way.
