@tmtvl in a peer comment recommended Juzo Itami's 1985 Japanese film Tampopo which is well worth watching.
It's literally includes mascaline Japanese "truck driving" culture with a heavy dash of western cowboy overlay and a women determined to be the best Ramen Chef possible - with a whole lot more thrown in.
But yes, local film, many years ago, already juxtaposing a lone woman in a blokey bloke male heavy culture for comedy and other angles.
