This month we are screening the greatest movie ever made about labor politics: THE WORKING CLASS GOES TO HEAVEN, a darkly comical satire by Communist director Elio Petri.
Gian Maria Volonté stars as Lulu, a model factory machinist adored by his bosses but hated by his co-workers. When Lulu accidentally loses a finger while operating a machine, he becomes a martyr figure for both unionists and student revolutionaries. Now a symbolic tool, Lulu is slowly driven to madness.
Depicting the complicated relationship between the ruling-class, the ideologues, and the reactionary mass without political conscience, THE WORKING CLASS GOES TO HEAVEN is essential viewing. Winner of both the Golden Palm and Best Actor prizes at the Cannes Film Festival.
