In an angular, tightly organized office, chill fluorescent light bounces off white walls. Four female colleagues routinely manoeuvre through their day's tasks with quick steps and forceful gestures. The sterile and impersonal machinery shifts into murderous gear. Welcome to Heartcore Kantoor! A place where things should be done as they are done and things are done as they should be done.
Colleagues conform to unwritten office laws. Adapting to the stifling macho atmosphere falls harder and harder on them. How can this be sustained? In unguarded moments, covert desires seep into the workplace. Irrepressible personal indulgences playfully turn the course of events upside down. It crackles on all sides. The office is bursting at the seams. Will they succeed in combining forces to create a new reality?
Poetic resistance against the norms of macho culture.
