ComedyDrama

Meek middle-aged man Antonio Pane takes on every conceivable temporary job in order to feel useful and keep his dignity—until something shakes his inexhaustible optimism.

VIBE

A gentle, character-focused dramedy about finding meaning in the mundane. It feels like a quiet observation of everyday struggles, punctuated by moments of unexpected warmth and understated humor. A thoughtful, low-key experience.
