amily man Bruno has been laid off from his job with a paper company after 15 years faithful service, a victim of profit-motivated ‘efficiency' cuts. Watching a promo video for another company, he's convinced he could do a much better job than the boss, if only there was a vacancy. Still unemployed after two years, as money gets tighter and his patriarchal pride takes a battering, Bruno decides to act. In his determination to regain his rightful place in the paper manufacturing industry, he realises that should an appropriate job become available he'd have a far better chance if he could eliminate the other leading candidates. Literally.
Directed by Costa Gavras (Amen), Jose Garcia displays flawless comic timing in his nuanced performance as Bruno, a man driven to desperate acts by heartless social circumstances.
般奴是一個(ge)愛家的男人,他在一(yi)家造紙公司忠心(xin)地服(fu)務了十五年(nian),卻(que)因為公司轉(zhuan)營而成為一切講求經(jing)濟效益下的犧(xi)牲者。有日(ri),當他看到另(ling)一家公司的宣傳(chuan)短片後(hou),自信(xin)地覺(jiao)得只要(yao)有(you)機會(hui),自己(ji)比(bi)那(na)公(gong)司(si)的負責人更勝任。失業兩年(nian)仍找不到工作,經濟開始拮据,感(gan)到一家之主的尊嚴受損,般奴決定是(shi)時候採取行(hang)動。他決心要在造(zao)紙業取回(hui)自己應有的地位。他(ta)認為,若有適合的職(zhi)位空缺出現時,只要他能除(chu)去其(qi)他有實(shi)力的應徵者,實實在(zai)在(zai)的除去(qu),那麼(me)他(ta)的(de)機會會更大。
在導演哥(ge)士達.加夫卡的(de)指導下,祖斯.加(jia)西亞把般奴這(zhe)個被無(wu)情(qing)的商業社會(hui)迫至挺而走險的(de)人之心路歷(li)程(cheng)演(yan)繹得淋(lin)漓盡致。
