A jeweller sets up all kinds of chains of financial arrangements in order to make enough profit to pay his debts.
A film with a fast and stressful rhythm, both for the character and for the audience. It's well made and very realistic, with actors often proving their talent, but in the end, it's a story wasted on a mediocre guy who doesn't seem to be aware of his own mediocrity. It doesn't teach a particularly special message, perhaps maybe an obvious "man makes plans and God laughs" but in this case the plans are extremely irresponsible and even stupid, things that are explicitly told to the character surprisingly often by those with whom he interacts.
