SYNOPIS
Partners:
Some find it relaxing, others are bored. Repetitive and mundane, work in a CD and DVD factory does not require much concentration or reflection. There are people who have been working there for several decades. Their statements make the narration of the animation. We can hear their voices but we cannot see their faces—symbolically they become unimportant, just like every worker who is only a part of the system, a cog in the machine, not an individual. A rhythmic, absorbing and hypnotic animation about a routine and finding meaning in it. (Krakow Film Festival)
