The Man Who Couldn't Say No poster

Overview

Rasmus is a commissioning editor prepared to go to lengths to keep people happy - which is just what he has to do, because Rasmus has a problem. He can't say no. To his ex-girlfriend who wants a baby or his new girlfriend, who wants things clear cut, or his author pal, who wants to write for a limited audience, or his new boss, who wants to publish sex guides.
