A quest for self-improvement

Drama

Sandra is a young woman who has only one weekend to convince her colleagues they must give up their bonuses in order for her to keep her job — not an easy task in this economy.

VIBE

A quietly devastating yet deeply empathetic journey through economic desperation. It's a raw, intimate portrayal of one woman's fight for dignity, marked by a steady, almost unbearable tension and the quiet strength found in human connection amidst profound moral challenges.
