Salaryman

In the fast-paced world of Tokyo's corporate culture, a silent struggle rages on. "Salaryman" sheds light on the unspoken sacrifices made by the city's most dedicated workers, who sacrifice their personal lives for the sake of their jobs. Expected to work tirelessly and drink heavily, these men are often left voiceless and unnoticed, their lives reduced to mere cogs in the machinery of commerce. Through the lens of an unnamed, overworked protagonist, this thought-provoking documentary probes the dark underbelly of capitalism and the human cost of our relentless pursuit of productivity.
