This is a story of a man who wakes up and goes to his work. It is simple story, but this has many unique scenes and is a little unrealistic. All the things he uses are human, from the table to the taxi. At first, I feel that this is full of humor and an interesting way of expression. However, I changed from the first image of this film and find the meaning of this title. Furthermore, I began to feel something fearful. It is because, of course, there is no dialogue and music, but mainly because of his astonishing action.
In addition, the sound of his snort is so cold and hopeless that I cannot help thinking about what working is. The way of feeling about it differs from person to person such as blue- and white-collar workers. This film is a symbol of working in modern society and might express the filmmakers own thoughts on this theme by the scene after the credits. Watching this film gives us a good opportunity to think the meaning of what we are doing every day.

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.

You service other people, other people service you. Everyone has his/her own role in the society. Just do your job. Sometimes you feel some little power in your job while other time you feel powerless because your are at someone else' control.
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.
Haven't we all experienced being tired of life? The same daily routine, the lengthy and overburdening trials, the same dramas, the awful people, neverending personal issues, etc., you get the picture. And doesn't work make it all worse? The same drudgery of having to get up every day, the same daily routine, the lengthy and overburdening trials, the same dramas, the awful people, never-ending personal issues, etc., you get the picture. This appealing crudely animated film perfectly encapsulates all of that. Used and abused, tried and tired, weary and wearily the clock ticks on...
