'Still working 9 to 5' takes a look at the challenges women still face in the workplace today.
It is inspired by Parton's 1980 film, '9 to 5', in which she played alongside Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin as they portrayed three working women who live out their fantasies of getting even with and overthrowing the company's autocratic, "sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot" boss.
The beloved singer-songwriter also released her hit song '9 to 5' alongside the film in 1980.
