De Manager

It's the most intimate moment in modern organisations: the performance review. In meeting rooms, managers sit down across from their employees. What begins as a formal conversation about performance unfolds into something far bigger: insecurities surface, power subtly shifts, ambitions clash with expectations. Uncomfortable silences speak just as loudly as words. In this documentary, the manager remains at the centre of the frame throughout. Without commentary or interviews, the camera simply observes how people try to truly understand one another — or fail to. An intimate film about work, dignity and human vulnerability.
