Plot/Oslo presents: After Work

Free film screening & pizza for everyone between 18-25
Tuesday 23.01.24

After Work is a thought-provoking film about labour in the 21st century. Filmed with a sharp lens and a hint of sarcasm, director Erik Gandini explores our relationship with our jobs. Who are we if we stop working?

On Tuesday 23 January, Plot/Oslo invites you to a free screening of the film and pizza at Kunstnernes Hus!

About the film

After Work explores a development in society which is raising concern for a lot of people, and affects many more. The majority of today's jobs will disappear within a few decades. While technology is surpassing human capacity, we should be thinking of what role work has in our lives. Are we ready for a surplus of time? A life without a job? With a story that crosses four continents, After Work describes four different fates, where some barely have a life without their job, while others truly enjoy their free time. Through it all we're thrown into an existential friction, between the present and the future.
