## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The front office sees dollar signs when a pencil-pusher stages a fake suicide. His one-man protest mutates into corporate theater: suddenly he’s selling stability without realizing the boss has stolen his face. A 1960s Japanese office noir that leaves the salaryman sawing at his own billboard.

**Mood tags**: outsider, raw, slow-burn
