These four shorts each explore the complex relationship between people and work: from full identity and self-definition to a job taken simply to make money. The programme embraces the whole spectrum. Each film casts the workplace in a different light: warm when it evokes nostalgia, cold when it feels alienating, dark when it reveals shady sides, and finally saturated when work fades into the background and characters take centre stage. In the end, the workplace becomes what it should be: a backdrop for what truly matters in film – people, and how they navigate life’s challenges. Because we are more than our jobs.
