When Dominic, a young man from a small town, was looking for a job in the big city of Milan, his clear and pure eyes seemed out of tune with this empty and depressing world. When applying for a job at a big company, a large number of job seekers wait outside the door, and then take a screening test, a physical test, a balance test, and so on. Each job seeker is like the goods to be selected being put on the shelf in batches, and makes actions and reactions according to the instructions and instructions, hoping to meet the other party's standards and obtain the chance and qualification of survival. In this era of labor alienation, individual assimilation and unidirectionalization, cold office buildings gather machine parts that have lost their individuality and passion, repeating, repressed, empty, expressionless, sluggish, and mechanical. On the contrary is the interaction between Dominic and the girl who is also the interviewee, Ai Doli. They walk on the street and talk in the cafe while waiting for the result after taking the test. This is what they have after leaving the cold office building. The state of life of self and emotion, ironically, such a state can only occur in the gap between work, and the time to be true to oneself is always so short in modern society, and can only survive through cracks. When Dominic got a job opportunity and looked innocently at the leader who helped him assign work tasks in the office, the image of a helpless teenager who had just entered the society came into view. He was about to enter the social machine and was constantly being consumed. And forge, become a "mature" "useful person". Dominic found a job where he could provide income for a poor family and finance his brother's studies, he succeeded, but he lost his love. Ai Duoli did not appear at the grand ball, leaving only Dominic's lonely expression and lonely figure. Their most wonderful moment was in the gap between waiting for the exam results. Now they are all hired, but they are not in the same department, but for Ai Duoli, the street walks and chatting in the cafe were more like a group to warm up, and it had nothing to do with love. . Losing love, for Dominic, the only thing left is work. For the leader, this is the most attractive state of an employee... At the end, the one sitting in the last row, surrounded by the lamp on the desk The middle-aged male employees who have been exposed to their eyes for decades exchanged desks with Dominica due to their seniority. As a result, every old employee rushed to move forward. The lifelong pursuit and value realization of each employee are reflected in This moved forward in the form of a row. Dominic sat in front of the lamp, like a cycle. Maybe he would complain about the damage to his eyes from the light decades later, and then switch positions with the new employee, but the damaged eyes could never be restored.
