Symbolaio Ergasias was taking place in RAI building in Nicosia. A typically office like environment and the use of video conference, power point presentations, skype talks, motivational slogans and businnes videos became the material to construct a world of sterile office lives. The audience was taken through the elevators to the second floor of the building and walked through the offices of our theatrically constructed "C" company to sit in a conference area and become witnesses of an unfolding interview between the manager and an employ of "C".
