Domenico is a 53 year old manager that after a successful life at work, he suddenly and inexplicably find himself facing the abyss of unemployment, with a family on his shoulders and still so much to offer with his knowledge and skills. A story set in a big city in the north of Italy and in a small town in the central of Italy. A story common to many in a period of economicsocialpolitical crisis like this new millennium which makes a man in his fifties too old to look for a job and too young to deserve a rest with a pension. Among anxieties, worries and hopes, Domenico, thanks to numerous circumstances that helped him and above all, thanks to his way of being, he finds another job within 36 unbelievable hours. Not an event but a series of situations that highlight how professionalism, honesty, generosity, confidence, radiance knowledge on how to build relation ships, are important values in life. Values that bring the man to be central to a society based now only on numbers, on individualism and convenience at any cost. A message that hopes to be the beginning of a new era, that of the human capital. It's a point of view that embraces the fifty year olds marginalized from the labor market and the youth that face it for the first time.
