The Tip of the Iceberg

Based on a play by Antonio Tabares, David Canovas’ debut is set almost exclusively in glass and metal tower blocks, terrestrial icebergs where millions of dehumanized beings each day get stressed out under blue lighting by trying to keep smiles on shareholders’ faces. Market analyst Sofia (Verdu), considered to be a safe pair of hands and apparently without a private life, is assigned by her boss Enzo (Carlo d’Ursi) the tricky task of visiting one of the (curiously unnamed) company branches to figure out why three of its employees have committed suicide.
