"When young Domenico ventures from the small village of Meda to Milan in search of employment, he finds himself on the bottom rung of the bureaucratic ladder in a huge, faceless company. The prospects are daunting, but Domenico finds reason for hope in the fetching Antonietta. A tender coming-of-age story and a sharp observation of dehumanizing corporate enterprise, Ermanno Olmi's Il Posto is a touching and hilarious tale of one young man's stumbling entrance into the perils of modern adulthood"--Container.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Slower than you might expect. submitted by lisa on August 1, 2019, 1:15pm The sense of realism in this film is amazing, though. It really does feel as if you're secretly watching real people's lives, somehow.
