    • Synopsis
    • The first, Fun Committee, stars an office worker who is chosen by managers to take part in fun activities that they think will bolster the morale of their employees.

      In the second segment, The Ghost in the Machine, a family imagines that the star of a television soap opera has replaced the hospitalised head of the family in their home.

      The third, Contact, features a slum dweller who receives mysterious letters.
