Ladies First (2026)

Ladies First is a satirical comedy about Damien Sachs, a powerful and self-confident womanizer whose life changes completely when he wakes up in a parallel world where women dominate social and professional life. The role reversal puts his assumptions about relationships, status and workplace behavior under direct pressure.
