O Emprego

The seed for this animation film can be found in the Indian a 2006 ad- film, for Happydent White(https://youtu.be/GWvxt1IL9Wg). Though this commercial is all about bringing smile to your face, but deep down it shows the same ordeal faced by employees all around the world.

Now bout this short film, from the start you have a bad feeling for the guy for all his acts, but as soon as he lay down as a door mat, you start seeing yourself in this man.

With its low-key, quiet, almost ASMR aesthetic, 'The Employment (2008)' is oddly calming in its own rustic sort of way. The short is essentially an extended metaphor, one that takes aim at our capitalist society. It's pretty powerful, even if it doesn't exactly shout about its importance. It just lets its events speak for themselves, silently portraying a series of domestically outlandish scenarios as outlandishly domestic as possible. It's hard to describe how relaxing it is thanks to its very specific vibe. It's an impressive, well-considered and entertaining short film that has something to say and says it well.

The man at the center of this feature lives a mundane life. He is employed as are all figures in this film. What we have here is technology reduced to human terms, where taxi drivers actually carry people on their backs. Where a man literally is a doormat to his boss. Obviously, all is metaphorical. It's interesting how many of these short features show life as being pointless and depressing. Jean-Paul Sartre, you have been proved correct.

people as objects. pieces in a long routine. same gestures, same movements, same way and steps and duties and beginning of the day and the end of the work day. social criticism. obvious truth. reflection of irrationality of contemporary society. the well known facts who, on the screen, are real terrible. but this is the structure of our life. and the great virtue of this short animation is not to put the mirror front to its public but its beautiful simplicity. because nothing could be attached to a cold, realistic, maybe cynical verdict about us by ourselves.

people. as objects . or tools. at first sigh, a society criticism. in fact, a warning. about manner to discover the other. a splendid animation because each of its viewers discovers his universe frame. because it reflects frustrations and need to escape from status of piece from a series.an animation who represents more than artistic success or a great revelation. it reflects the every day reality and represents good opportunity to reflect not about an absurd, without soul system but about personal reaction front to that provocation.a dark movie. and a sunny end credits. one of animations who seems be a parable. in fact, their are only the clock for wake-up.
