What happens when entrepreneurial storytelling becomes part of the deepest self of a person and a community becomes a commodity, a product? By using different visual forms, including animation, the film stands as a delicate and critical glance on a world where work without pauses is intertwined in shared spaces, virtual connections, self-management and private life, innovation, precariousness, flexibility and individual adaptation are put to the test.
