It is a kind of trilogy that unfolds across three key periods, witnessing the mechanisms of job destruction and its human consequences.
A powerful and sensitive social drama
The much-needed Un autre monde, is a powerful and sensitive social drama that was released in cinemas in 2022. It tells the story of Philippe and his wife who separate as their love is damaged by the pressures of work.
A successful executive at an industrial group, Philippe can no longer meet his management’s incoherent demands. Yesterday they wanted him to be a manager, today they want him to be a “doer.” He is at a point where he needs to decide the meaning of his life.
Stéphane Brizé continues his powerful exploration of the world of work, led by the incredible Vincent Lindon. In this breathtaking and emotionally powerful drama, in which one scene will move you, he wanted to portray the consequences of the work of those who are considered the armed wing of the company, but who are simply individuals caught between a rock and a hard place.
