G.I. Jane
Failure is not an option.
Directed by Ridley Scott
Produced by Caravan Pictures, Largo Entertainment
A determined underdog drama about a woman breaking into an elite military institution through sheer willpower and physical endurance, driven by themes of sexism, proving oneself, and institutional resistance.
In response to political pressure from Senator Lillian DeHaven, the U.S. Navy begins a program that would allow for the eventual integration of women into its combat services. The program begins with a single trial candidate, Lieutenant Jordan O'Neil, who is chosen specifically for her femininity. O'Neil enters the grueling Navy SEAL training program under the command of Master Chief John James Urgayle, who unfairly pushes O'Neil until her determination wins his respect.
