MARCEL

Marcel’s a guy that nobody notices. People snog in front of him in the lift, the ticket inspector doesn’t check his ticket and at work, everyone gives his desk a wide berth. Which is all totally fine by Marcel. He doesn’t have to take responsibility for anything. Everything changes when he rescues a neighbour who’s all set to jump off the roof of their apartment building.
