The Market Man
2020, Italian. Directed by Paola Cireddu.
This short film tells the story of a marginalized man who, in order to survive, collects old cassettes from shops and off the street and carries them on his shoulders to resell them for a few cents. A story of poverty and marginalization, but also of social redemption and solidarity, sketched by the director with a touch of poetry, passion, and disenchantment.
