A Full Life tells the love story of Laura, a beautiful young woman, and Vladimir, a ladies' man. They work in the computer graphics department of a New York investment bank in 1999 (the height of the dot com frenzy). Laura attempts to copy the culture of greed she sees at the top of the management tree, and descends deep into the darker realms of the human spirit.
