Two managers in grey suit, and a nervous woman, at times cheerful, at times annoyed, moving restlessly her hands. The look of a couple of men who administrated two of the Italian most prominent Cultural Companies and the impudent eye of a writer who managed to unveil the faults of the corporate life writing an international best-seller. The voices of duty and engagement of two champions of work facing the voice that screamed Hello Laziness! all over the world, stirring thousands of readers' sense of self-respect, passions and the awareness of their own time - the one and only inheritance of each one. Yet, is it really that way?Mario Andreose and Ferruccio de Bortoli facing Corinne Maier. "Order and subversion, normalcy and impertinence: what are they and where do their limits lie? This is Two Versus One. Three actors, three different logics, as they are expressed in different languages, put together and then broken down into different levels of view: one more mirror for the NONreciprocity of communication." (E. Sgarbi)
