In both films, blue-collar workers find their livelihood, their ethics or both compromised by the hard, inhuman priorities of their capitalist overlords, to incrementally soul-scraping effect.<\/p>\n<p>In \u201cAnother World,\u201d Briz\u00e9 and Lindon reunite to complete a trilogy of sorts on the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">theme<\/a>, though the perspective in this characteristically measured, intelligent, unexcitable film is reversed: Here, Lindon plays a white-collar manager caught between duty to his corporate superiors and obligations to his employees, rendered increasingly powerless in the impasse. Lest you think \u201cAnother World\u201d is a work of bourgeois both-sides-ism, however, rest assured that it reaches the same furious conclusion as it predecessors, albeit via another route: Briz\u00e9\u2019s reputation as France\u2019s own answer to Ken Loach remains intact. If \u201cAt War\u201d enjoyed a slightly lower art-house profile than \u201cThe Measure of a Man\u201d \u2014 which had a Cannes win for Lindon to show off \u2014 \u201cAnother World\u201d will likely continue the pattern following its low-key Venice competition premiere, though the presence of a fine Sandrine Kiberlain in a supporting role is an additional draw for distributors.<\/p>\n<p>It is domestic crisis, rather than workplace warfare, that consumes wealthy executive plant manager Philippe (Lindon) at the film\u2019s outset: His wife Anne (Kiberlain) has finally asked for a divorce after many years of marital drift, and the film opens on a scene of heated confrontation between the couple and their respective lawyers. Anne\u2019s lawyer demands a payout of \u20ac375,000, which doesn\u2019t appear to be any great problem for Philippe, who\u2019s more perturbed by Anne\u2019s insistence that the last seven years of their marriage have been \u201chell.\u201d (\u201cIf it was hell, ask for eight million,\u201d he counters.) Once the action shifts to the office, however, we begin to see how Philippe \u2014 neither an unkind nor an unreasonable man, it seems \u2014 may have carried a strained, combative work environment home with him.<\/p>\n<p>For despite his healthy paycheck, the permanently navy-suited Philippe is nowhere near the top of any ladder. He may be nominally in charge of the regional factory he oversees \u2014 producing what, it\u2019s never clearly established, as if the point of industry is lost in its politics \u2014 but he answers to the demands of the Paris office, whose chilly, efficiency-minded head Claire (Marie Drucker) is in turn under the thumb of American corporate chiefs. (One of them, played with terrifyingly impersonal menace by Jerry Hickey, appears for a kind of \u201cGlengarry Glen Ross\u201d-via-Zoom declaration of bland evil.) It\u2019s a chain of command that progressively sheds any sense of human connection with each upward link. When Claire instructs Philippe to lay off a significant percentage of his already overworked staff, it\u2019s a directive born of spreadsheets and profit margins, calculated by people who will never have to acquaint themselves with the lives ruined in the process.<\/p>\n<p>The quiet thriller of strategy versus principle that ensues \u2014 as Philippe stalls over Claire\u2019s orders, misleading his workers as he attempts to protect them \u2014 is effectively a narrative reversal of \u201cAt War,\u201d in which Lindon played one of a thousand factory laborers threatened with unemployment, despite corporate promises to the contrary, after the facility faces closure. Both films pit individual moral codes against vast business considerations, with little David-versus-Goliath optimism. In \u201cAnother World,\u201d Lindon slips most persuasively into the skin of the middle class, inevitably cushioned from capitalist cruelty no matter how sincere their sympathies for those below them. His very posture and body language evoke the uncertainty of a man with no clear corner to fight.<\/p>\n<p>That Briz\u00e9 largely surrounds Lindon with non-professional actors in the film\u2019s workplace-based sections \u2014 often playing out as tense rhetorical standoffs over sterile gray conference tables \u2014 contributes toward their air of bristling division. But it also separates these scenes from the realm of his domestic life (another world, indeed), where pro thesps Kiberlain and Anthony Bajon (as Anne and Philippe\u2019s son Lucas, who struggles with learning difficulties) convey a sense of kinship even through their most fraught arguments.<\/p>\n<p>Anne and Philippe haven\u2019t fallen out of love with each other, exactly. But his challenging job hasn\u2019t just removed him from the home for countless overtime hours and weekends. It\u2019s stranded him between real and corporate life altogether, in such a way that he doesn\u2019t know to live either one anymore. Briz\u00e9 and Olivier Gorce\u2019s thorny script offers him the possibility of redemption, though it\u2019s not the kind that\u2019ll save any jobs, his own included. In this hard, unblinking film, even a moral victory feels like defeat.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-tags \/\/ a-children-icon-bullet lrv-u-font-family-primary u-letter-spacing-012 lrv-u-line-height-large lrv-u-color-brand-primary\">\n<h2 id=\"optional-screen-reader\" class=\"lrv-a-screen-reader-only\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"optional_screen_reader\"><\/span>\n        optional screen reader  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<nav class=\"o-nav  o-nav lrv-u-border-b-1 u-border-color-brand-secondary-40 lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-text-align-center lrv-u-padding-b-025 u-padding-t-050@desktop u-padding-t-050@tablet u-padding-t-050@mobile-max lrv-u-margin-t-2 lrv-u-margin-b-2\" data-dropdown=\"\">\n<h4 id=\"\" class=\"o-nav__title lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-font-family-secondary o-nav__title a-content-ignore u-line-height-140 u-letter-spacing-0002\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Read_More_About\"><\/span>Read More About:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n  !function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    if (f.fbq) return;\n    n = f.fbq = function() {\n      n.callMethod ?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n    };\n    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n    n.push = n;\n    n.loaded = !0;\n    n.version = '2.0';\n    n.queue = [];\n    t = b.createElement(e);\n    t.async = !0;\n    t.src = v;\n    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n  }(window, document, 'script',\n      'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '586935388485447');\n  fbq('init', '315552255725686');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
