The Invisible Hand

View on the Pragda STREAM site

An industrial warehouse is turned into a stage. Eleven ordinary professionals are hired to do their work in front of an audience with apparent normality: a mason, a butcher, a seamstress, a teleoperator, a waiter, a mechanic, a computer operator, and a cleaner. Meanwhile, from the darkness of the auditorium, dozens of visitors observe the 'wonderful' work show. Work of art, reality show, macabre experiment: they do not know what they've got into, nor who is the hand that moves the strings in that wicked theater.

With impeccable performances and a surprising ending, the adaptation of the novel by Isaac Rosa is an astonishing parable of work in contemporary society.
