Produce at all costs! Even if we are not paid immediately, we must go on at all costs! To find new clients, at all costs! New suppliers, at all costs!

A tragic comedy about work and everything we are forced to do in order to survive. Louis Marcorelles Award at Cinema du Réel and best documentary at Potsdam Festival 1995.
