GOOD FAITH
CLAIRE MORROW, 38, has been a union negotiator for fifteen years. She knows how to win. DANIEL SHAW, 41, is the VP of Operations for the company she is about to face across the table. They meet in a hotel bar the night before negotiations begin. Neither knows who the other is. By morning they have been honest with each other in ways both of them have been rationing for years. When they sit down at the table at nine AM, what was between them in the bar becomes the most complicated thing either has brought into a negotiation. Neither is the villain. The obstacle is structural. Both cannot win. A sharp, warm, commercially viable two-hander about the cost of good faith in an unfair system.
A union negotiator and a company VP meet in a hotel bar the night before their high-stakes contract talks begin. Neither knows who the other is. By morning they have said things they cannot unsay. By nine AM they are on opposite sides of a negotiating table where four hundred and twelve jobs hang on the outcome.
