Restored & Unseen: Il posto

Ermanno Olmi / IT, 1961 / 93 min.

Ermanno Olmi’s debut film about a young man who lands a job with a big firm is a compelling portrait of existential loneliness. Olmi has a keen eye for the power relations that were still unquestioned in 1961. 35mm restoration from Eye’s collection.
