AroView: Vincent Lindon plays a factory boss going through a painful divorce while managing a painful downsize at his company which has been taken over by a cut-throat American corporation.

“An engrossing depiction of severe occupational hazards, with most of the action set in drab, purely functional offices and conference rooms where Philippe has to contend with an impossible task.” ~Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter

“This meditation on the emotions that bind and the economy that separates is a worthy representation of the risky business of holding onto humanity in contemporary society.” ~Marshall Shaffer, The Playlist
