When the pressure of evading the law (or paying mounting fines) becomes too great for Issa\u2019s boss, he lets the diligent youngster go from his low-paying flea-market job, leaving him to the mercy of the gig economy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Over-the-table work is hard to come by, given his legal status, but friend and fellow immigrant Mario (Moussa Dicko Diango) sets him up with a food delivery <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\">app<\/a> and even lends Issa his smartphone. The only problem is Issa doesn\u2019t have a bicycle, and must haggle just to get one second-hand \u2014 one of just several indignities wrought upon him. Following De Sica\u2019s original, Issa\u2019s bike is eventually stolen, leaving him with few options but to try to track it down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    While the film\u2019s broad premise resembles \u201cBicycle Thieves,\u201d its cultural specifics ensure that the film plays out differently. For one thing, Issa can\u2019t involve the police in his search, for fears that he might be deported. For another, there are linguistic and racial barriers at every turn. Although he knows Italian, he\u2019s much more comfortable speaking Wolof, and the local population has a tendency to view him with suspicion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    These existing tensions also impact the way the film plays out compared to De Sica\u2019s original \u2014 departures that, while small, seem to be entirely Tangshir\u2019s point. Italy and its problems have changed since 1948, as has the face of its population. \u201cAnywhere Anytime\u201d seeks to inject these changes into a broadly familiar cultural verbiage, though it\u2019s hardly didactic about its approach. Issa, for instance, certainly acts out of desperation, the way \u201cBicycle Thieves\u201d protagonist Antonio Ricci (Lamberto Maggiorani) once did, but the intended response to Issa isn\u2019t just pity, but understanding. He acts equally out of anger and frustration, given his circumstances, and he makes morally questionable decisions along the way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    With quiet, lengthy stretches interspersed with popular African and Middle Eastern songs, \u201cAnywhere Anytime\u201d creates a soundtrack to immigrant labor, with space for thought, anxiety and reflection broken up by vivid cultural memories. This is perhaps the movie\u2019s most unique aesthetic flourish, though perhaps its only notable one. It\u2019s never ugly to look at \u2014 Giuseppe Maio\u2019s cinematography makes Turin feel as vivid and alive as any of the movie\u2019s characters \u2014 though it doesn\u2019t necessarily innovate beyond this acoustic showcase, the way \u201cBicycle Thieves\u201d left an impression with its novel naturalism.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    This is by no means a necessity for any film, though it does render \u201cAnywhere Anytime\u201d more of a pastiche than an analytical remix. However, even as an homage with a modern software update, it works just fine. Cinematographer Giuseppe Maio\u2019s night scenes are bathed in bokeh and gentle soft-focus, creating a sense of living, breathing texture around the characters (this is the biggest and most poetic visual departure from \u201cBicycle Thieves\u201d and its deep-focus photography by Carlo Montuori).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Notably, while \u201cAnywhere Anytime\u201d sticks to the original\u2019s structure, its minor changes ensure that it also departs thematically. Tangshir swaps the original\u2019s father-son dynamic for a romantic subplot, between Issa and fellow refugee Awa (Success Edemakhiota), though theirs is a courtship built on dreams of comfort. Issa\u2019s bike isn\u2019t just an object of economic liberation, allowing him to perform deliveries for a meager salary and tips. It\u2019s also recreational, and allows Issa and Awa to go on intimate rides in the middle of the night, as an escape from their cramped, temporary housing. The film has no qualms about the fact that not only Issa\u2019s desire to work, but his desire to truly live, ought to be reason enough for us to care.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
