Naomi Bishop is an investment banker determined to overcome a previous stain to her professional reputation, which is a challenge in the male dominated financial sector she works in. As Naomi in that spirit makes her move managing a burgeoning new tech IPO, she has to endure not only the condescension of her colleagues, but also her imperious client even as troubling new developments cloud the venture's future. Against that, the probing of a college friend turned Federal investment law prosecutor and the conniving of her double-dealing boyfriend seem to be manageable complications, until a betrayal by a trusted colleague threatens to ruin everything. — Kenneth Chisholm (kchishol@rogers.com) The movie Equity takes us on a tension-filled ride with high powered, high earning women in the investments and public trading world. The 'Boys-Only' club in high finance have relented and the bulls in heels are in it to win it. They've earned their place at the finely polished corporate table and can play a ruthless game as they climb to the top. The question is: What do they do with all this financial success now that they've won it? Senior investment banker Naomi Bishop's (Gunn) world of high-power big money is brutal and fierce, and one she thrives in. When a controversial IPO threatens the fragile balance of power and confidentiality, Naomi finds herself entangled in a web of politics and deception.
