Cable Girls speaks about one of the most sensitive topics a woman has to face – Equality. Every woman has their own definition of ‘equality’, this is not because of the differences between their cultures and societies but because of the different lives they live and the kind of experiences that are followed.
Centuries have passed and humans have evolved from their books full of social stigmas. Having said that, earlier days were not so easy for women. For example, the 1920’s Spain where women did not exhibit much power and freedom. This is what Cable Girls deals with within its five seasons.
