Variable Interest Rate

A seemingly ordinary event, signing a mortgage contract with a bank, becomes a pretext for a fascinating game played between two characters: a Banker and his female Client. The man knows her: she teaches his daughter. Unexpectedly, their conversation deviates far from the usual contract signing procedure. The drama of the meeting stems from Banker’s fight for the Client’s ‘soul’. His position as a representative of a powerful system is seemingly unquestionable and gives him a considerable advantage over the Client. However, the tables turn when she openly questions the whole system as immoral. Philosophical aspects of their confrontation will take the topic of the predatory credit market to a spiritual level.
