The Employee Dharma Handbook

7:30 PM · Lucie Stern Theatre · Palo Alto

As an important rocket launch approaches, Val, an HR Executive at an aerospace company in Silicon Valley, suspects that a young engineer was overlooked for a promotion. Leela, a first generation Indian-American, doesn't really want to talk about it, but Val suspects sexism is the cause. What they don't expect to uncover are simmering tensions of ancient origins among the company's Indian immigrant employees…sorry, Valued Team Members. Soon Val is navigating a funhouse of identity, nepotism, and desire as she tries to understand the culture and biases of Leela's managers. When push comes to shove, Val will need to decide what her duty is to Leela, to the company, and to herself.
