Fred Staples is a small town plant manager. When a conglomerate swallows up his business, he's given an executive position in the new company. It turns out his promotion has more to do with leverage against his new boss's adversary, the company's vice president. With Fred in a battle between personal loyalty and company loyalty, PATTERNS is a story of cutthroat corporate business. (official distributor synopsis)
