Storyline
Devil At Work is a fast-paced, addictive workplace drama with the slick style of Succession and the tension of a classic cat-and-mouse thriller built for the vertical screen. At the center is Ava, a smart, ambitious woman who’s spent years reinventing herself. When she lands a job at a cutting-edge fashion-tech company, she’s ready to conquer the world until she discovers her boss is the same man who humiliated and destroyed her in college. What’s worse? He doesn’t even recognize her. But as his harassment escalates, Ava turns the tables, setting up a dangerous game of power, revenge, and survival, all under the neon glow of corporate success. What would you do if you were faced with a devil at work?
