The Huns

By Michael Ross Albert

A menacing, new workplace comedy about millennial anxieties, minor revolutions, and modern-day barbarians.
The morning after a break-in at a tech company, three co-workers assemble for a conference call to discuss the burglary. What starts as a civilized, professional meeting swiftly devolves into a brutal showdown that puts everyone’s careers — and their hopes for future happiness — in jeopardy.
