We’ve all received scam phone calls, but what about the person making the calls? Cruise is a dark workplace satire about a hapless telemarketer trying mightily to give away a free cruise. And if he fails, there will be dire consequences.
Director’s Vision for ‘Cruise’
Cruise was inspired by the way workplaces put immense pressure on employees, even at thankless jobs in which they’re constantly set up to fail. It’s a film about the feeling of needing a job that you hate, and the way many of us have come to accept that feeling as an inevitable fact of life. But it’s funny.
