Marco Pressi is a thirty-year-old manager working for the multi-national company, MTI. One day, his bosses suggest that he changes his position: he has to deal with personnel cut-backs. Marco accepts and starts a race against time. He has to make new alliances and betray old friends. He soon realizes that the race he is involved in has got two prizes: the first is survival, the second his own working death. He cannot get help from Laura, his “almost girlfriend”. He cannot get help from those who decided to resist against the company. He cannot get help from a girl called Angelique that seems the incarnation of his recurrent dreams. He cannot get help from Jean Claude, a powerful manager from the MTI on assignment in Italy. But Marco Pressi won’t give up and manages to achieve his target by using all his resources, and in his own way.
