_Il posto_ is a sweet story of naive love between two young people set in the frame of the working world of post-war Italy. Olmi gracefully and illuminatingly tackles the ambiguities and hypocrisies of the myth of the Italian 'permanent job' with an incredible pioneering critical eye. A film with such topical themes that considering its year of release makes its viewing even more heartfelt. A little gem to be recovered.
