Year

Country

Duration
50’
Director
Regev Contes

This is a documentary about the three clumsy workers of a small family insurance agency. All of them are in their late 50’s, and look the same: chubby bold, bearded with massive glasses, and though they are kind, easy going, sensitive and broad minded gentlemen, they know nothing about business and are on a verge of bankruptcy in any aspect of life. The film documents their survival attempt during the 2008’s economical crisis.
