Directed by Mark Street
USA, 2019, 68 min, DCP
“What’s the weirdest thing that ever happened at your job?” Mark Street interviews cab drivers, longshorewomen, a farmer, a barista and others from California to New York. A kaleidoscopic portrait of the United States at work emerges with threats from automation, the gig economy and the decline of unions. Inspired by the writing of the great Studs Terkel.
