Film Synopsis
Rak's life takes an unexpected turn after he is dismissed by his
company. He discovers that the word 'travail' stems from the
Latin word 'tripalium', an instrument of torture. He thereupon
decides to create his own work. Having raised some capital by a
hold-up, Rak sets himself up as a managing director and sets about
hiring staff to sell fictitious musical encyclopaedias.
