If the worker is surrealism
O ggi the gates of the factory will reopen, but wounds Pomigliano D'Arco, working-class town near Naples are not yet healed.
On one hand, workers in late June said no to the plane of Fiat Sergio Marchionne, in a referendum in the history of law entered the Italian working, the other country of the South, essentially ugly, with one square, three fountains and a center of industrial civilization and culture of the country before the '60s, then the houses for the workers of Alfa and a new, strange, toponymy: Piedmont Park, Via Po, Via Torino.
Just walk down the street hand-in microphone and camera on his shoulder, to see first hand the contradictions, fears, anger. He did
Paolo Rossi, listening, asking, entering the homes of workers, politicians, priests, trade unionists.
is "RCL", "reduced work capacity," docu-drama on the dispute Fiat Pomigliano d'Arco brainchild of journalist and author Neapolitan Alessandro Di Rienzo, directed by Massimiliano Carbone, shot with the author and the musician and actor Milan Emanuele Dell'Aquila.
An eye in the north down to hot temperatures in Campania and social climate, a diverse mix of stories but eventually merge. "Pomigliano sometimes reminded me of Sesto San Giovanni - explains Paolo Rossi - but the difference is that here the heat is different, it seems to me that here people are still together is still fragmented. It will be for the houses built around courtyards and warehouses, to the rural roots. "
During the filming of "Rcl", which lasted five days, Smith and Eagle have stumbled upon the town's mayor working in one of the Fiom, the parish priest, Don Peppino and five families of workers with which Paolo Rossi discussed over dinner, taken by the cameras.
"Here, despite the obvious problems in finding a job there are people who said no. In the North there are alternatives and alternatives became a group. Here, however, people react, There is another kind of courage. "
Filming started on the night of the referendum of the workers, organized or not to accept the agreement proposed by operating a number of Fiat, Marchionne (he voted yes, but with a minimum majority ). In the docu-drama
workers get upset when they read that they were accused of laxity, to deliver cars which fall short of minimum standards.
And in this mix of ingredients, where it also puts a strain test the combination of work and dignity of every move keeping in mind what to do in the mind, not on paper. Five days of intense, but with only a towel.
"For the first time - concluded Rossi - I used this method to work in film, a method that rests with our approach to improvisational theater. A civil surrealism, where the artist distorting reality, with shades visionary approaches and approaches to what happens to a reality that can not be explained otherwise. "
