PLOT
The bureaucrat Victor manages to acquire an apartment and, by lending it to his bosses for their affairs, earns money and promotions, though he suffers inconveniences by leaving the apartment at inconvenient hours, enduring robberies and colds. The office director also asks for the apartment to take Patricia, the elevator girl Victor loves. He is disappointed in her but discovers she attempted suicide. The director rewards him by appointing him manager, but he refuses the position, disgusted by the rampant corruption.
