Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise

In a cut‑throat corporate world where vacuum cleaners are treated as trophies, the story opens on a relentless sales floor that feels part office, part battlefield. The company’s culture glorifies the next contract as a lifeline, and the pressure to out‑sell rivals is as constant as the hum of a machine. Dark humor drips from every memo, and the atmosphere is a blend of bleak satire and absurdist charm, hinting that success may be as fleeting and elusive as a sigh of vacuum‑cleaned air.

Tommy Rag is the embodiment of that feverish ambition—a compulsive vacuum‑cleaner salesman whose self‑recorded motivational tapes scream “Sell, sell, fucking sell.” He lives on the edge, stashing odd comforts in his glove box and chasing a mythic prize known only as the Golden Vac, a symbol whispered about in break‑room lore. Across the aisle, Pete arrives as a reluctant trainee, a struggling electronic‑music DJ thrust into the ruthless rhythm of the sales floor. His girlfriend, Sheila, watches from the sidelines, setting a personal stake that ties intimacy to achievement, turning every deal into a test of both devotion and desperation.

The film’s tone teeters between stark realism and surreal exaggeration, using sharp, clinical set‑pieces and strained jokes to illustrate how the pursuit of profit can warp relationships. A looming corporate competition fuels the narrative, with the promise of the coveted golden vacuum hovering over every conversation like a mirage. The presence of Uki, the new head of IT, adds another layer of intrigue, reshaping the office into a space where intelligent women begin to guide customers, subtly shifting the power dynamics at play.

Through its stylized visual language and off‑kilter soundtrack, the movie invites viewers to question what it means to be “clean” in a world that rewards the dirtiest deals. It sets up a clash of personalities, ambitions, and moral boundaries that promises to keep the audience teetering between empathy and discomfort, all while never revealing the final outcome of the high‑stakes sales game.
