Aroview: Grappling with the personal dynamics and conflicts of corporate culture in a marketing department, this has a youthful upstart (Grace) promoted over middle-manager Quaid, who suffers with indifference, then resentment when his daughter (Johnannson) begins to fall for the young marketer.

Promising to put a more lightly comic spin on the territory of Neil La Bute and THE OFFICE, this maintains tension up to the halfway point before spilling into a more feelgood vein.
