APEGO AO DESEMPREGO SÓ SE FOR AGORA

O desemprego é um problema globalizado e quando uma obra artística aborda o drama com talento todo mundo sente na pele. Los Lunes Ao Sol/Mondays by the Sun (2002) um filme de Fernando Leon de Aranoa bem realizado e coerente a partir do título como querendo dizer se a situação está braba vamos enfrentá-la com humor no espirito sob o sol das segundas-feiras.
"Mondays in the Sun is a funny and compassionate tribute to the unemployed."
"...movie about spanish shipyard workers thrown out of work when the yard closed down is a sympathetic study of the hopelessness and emasculation of life without gainful employment."
"One of the minor characters delivers an aphorism: 'Unfortunately everything we were told about communism proved to be a lie. Also unfortunately, everything we were told about capitalism proved to be true.'
The film puts capitalism on trial at a crucial time in its history when globalization is destroying lucrative jobs as corporations farm out their work to countries with barely adequate wage scales."
"What we come away with aside from smiles at their surprising good humor and empathy at their woes is the view that every adult who wants to work deserves a job. Looking at today's economy, when the poor nations are getting poorer and the richer countries are downsizing workers by the millions."
