His outfit, his family set up, the type of his house and the model of his car are endlessly replicated by his neighbors around him to suggest that his is a typical, "standard" modern life. A corporate clerk, he is dreaming of climbing higher up the carrer ladder. The moment that he rises too high he is thrown out of the trap door back to square one and the story of his "making" begins anew. |
