another world kadar kuvvetli değil ama çok gerçek yine. vincent lindon ve stéphane brizé ikilisi bizi epey de efektif bir şekilde depresyona ve umutsuzluğa sürükleme konusunda kararlı.

a really masterful film directed by Stéphane Brizé staring Vincent Lindon as Thierry a unemployed man for 20 months he struggles to find a job and to provide for his wife and his autistic son and when he do finds a job as a security guy in a Rittal store he needs to lose his morel compass for the sake of his job the film is a a very realistic poetryel of the average working class man the film is shot and edited beautifully
