Film bitter about the world of precarious and everything that goes around ...
Graduated with honors cum laude and with so much to embrace the academic in the faculty of philosophy, Martha, starts immediately looking for a job as a researcher. The answers that come are all negative, no one is willing to hire her. Returning from a visit to her dying mother, Marta, convinced, decides to apply to the school board to begin a career in teaching. Even here, however, you will find the way barred. It will end shortly after the hellish reality of the call center, where between young telephone operators more like robots than people, ballets and absurd motivational awards typical of villages, discover the false behavior, blackmail, psychological violence against a multitude of boys and girls, graduates or not, but all having one thing in common: the fear and the risk of losing their "work" at any moment ...
Virzì addresses the issue of insecurity and shows it with absolute ferocity not giving up but at times funny and touching. The reality that faces the star, the call center, is one of the clearest examples of this condition. Children forced to take in the next round to earn a pitiful wage, blackmailed by his superiors and forced to go against all his moral principles despicably trying to get people to receive the homes above elderly. Children dismissed for not having achieved a certain number of appointments and thrown back into the street, where they were, and with nothing in hand. Girls forced to sell their bodies for the inability and impossibility of finding another job. Children desperate for a situation where, even those who should protect them in the end does nothing really concrete. Boys paradoxically, as the title, with a whole life ahead, but actually stuck at 24. Marta Through the eyes of all this is revealed clearly, and feel that you can not be that bitter and sad for all those kids so innocently teased and what remains is a feeling in the viewer anxiety and depression. 
The casting is excellent. Martha is played by the emerging and talented Isabella Ragonese. Other emerging and Micaela Ramazzoti (for those who like a bit of gossip, recently married with director Virzi) in the role of Sonia, the young mother's roommate Marta, and a little ingnorante superficilae perhaps, but with goodwill and tied up his daughter Lara. 
important confirmation comes from Elio Germano, surely one of the best young players in the Italian. It 'very good in' interpret his character, the seller door to door "Lucio 2" (yes, because in world of call centers, there is the possibility of maybe nick) passing from a state of mind to feel completely determined by the success contrary to arrive in the final behavior euphemistically be described as neutral. Sabrina Ferilli also good in the role of Daniel, foreman, team leader. Even his character around a specific address location. Ladies and ambitious career woman desperate among other things, 
in a final daring and moving, will eventually make a gesture, for the note of despair. Valerio Mastroandrea plays the most ambiguous of the story, the union leader Giorgio Conforti. Marta will blow up, but he, like many others, will end with disappoint. Who comes out I think it is resized Massimo Ghini in the role of the owner of the company. Certainly influenced the decision not to investigate his character, relegated to the margins of history. should also mention the presence of Laura Morante, or rather his voice. And 'in fact means that this story takes its course.
film denouncing the plight of temporary work in Italy. Faced with sarcasm right, without oversimplifying, and never boring.
Film hard, especially for those who have experienced similar situations on their skin, sometimes certainly excessive, exaggerated in some parts, but tragically realistic.
Attractions especially for the insights that can give.
