Produced by award-winning production company Made Up Stories (Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers) in partnership with global film and TV studio FIFTH SEASON, with production investment from Screen Australia, STRIFE is a comedic drama that follows Evelyn Jones (Asher Keddie), a modern, imperfect woman and publisher, on her journey from lounge room blogger to becoming a force in women’s media.
Set in the dynamic world of publishing and digital media, the series is inspired by Mia Freedman’s memoir Work, Strife, Balance and written by Australian screenwriter Sarah Scheller (The Letdown).
In season two, Evelyn Jones (Asher Keddie) is under siege. With the threat of a new rival women’s website looming and the arrival of a nasty troll calling out her hypocrisy and privilege, Evelyn is double guessing her instincts right when she needs to be on her A game. Eve Life has expanded to a fancy new office and ventures into podcasting, but Evelyn needs to find an investor to keep the ship afloat.
At home, she’s still birdnesting with Jon as the pair explore dating again … but with other people. This season brings a new level of drama while portraying the relatable complexities of womanhood – the ups, the downs and the laugh-out-loud moments in between.
Season two is directed by Neil Sharma (Heartbreak High, Mother and Son). Sarah Scheller has returned as both writer and executive producer for the new season, joined by a talented team of writers including Clare Stephens, Jessie Stephens, Andy Healy, Lexi Freiman, Amy Stewart, and Mary Coustas. Executive producers for Made Up Stories are Bruna Papandrea, Steve Hutensky, and Katie Amos, alongside Asher Keddie, Mia Freedman, Sarah Scheller, Alison Hurbert-Burns and Lana Greenhalgh. Lorelle Adamson served as producer.
