Overview
After being laid off and humiliated by a ruthless job market, a veteran paper mill manager descends into violence in a desperate bid to reclaim his dignity.
This is an interesting little unconventional film that deals with the choices we make. Specifically, did we have another choice, or have we convinced ourselves that we do not. The film is well-acted with a few scenes that stand out (the “wrestling” match was Tarantino-esque).
