THE EMPLOYMENT - a short animation film

Have you discussed the World of Work in English class? This is for you, 11th grade students!


‘El Empleo’/ ‘The Employment’ is a very critical short animation film by the director Santiago 'Bou' Grasso, from Buenos Aires, Argentina.


This film is about an anonymous man who performs his usual trip to work, immersed in a world where the utilization of people as objects is an everyday thing.



‘El Empleo’/ ‘The Employment’ is a film about the use of the man by the man.
The objectualization of the human being in our society is shown allegorically in a very particular way: a world where everyone is used as an object.
With dark humor and a critical look over the issue, we explore the place of the human being in the modern societies, searching for a deep reflection from the audience when facing the film's point of view.                                                                                        
Santiago 'Bou' Grasso
