It seems that a new Italian film that is receiving rave reviews, "Tutta La Vita Davanti" (All Your Life Ahead of You) has a thing or two to say about life (or a job, anyway) in the call center. And it's not complimentary.
The protagonist is a young woman cannot find a suitable job upon graduation from university, so she turns to a call center job. The job itself, apparently, acts as a motif for hopelessness: a dead-end job for a dead-end life.
Ouch.
The plot, and the young woman's predicament, is intended to underscore the difficulties of modern life and employment for young people in Italy.
A review and a commentary of the film can be found here in the International Herald Tribune.
