Wall Street, over a Century ago. Just an ordinary day in the office containing a curious bunch of humans: a kind and anonymous notary, two co-workers that hate each other, a coquettish secretary, a very active cleaning woman. Then one day a new employ is hired and it’s as if a gust of fresh air has arrived to completely blow off the normal sense of things, of their lives. His name is Bartleby and he is a scrivener. He diligently copies and fills out the paperwork that his superior passes on to him, until a little bit of sand gets in the gears and everything blocks up.
