As We're Told feels like peeling back layers of bureaucracy, revealing this cold yet strangely captivating world of the Swedish employment agency. Fredrik Wenzel's lens captures the starkness of the environment, with workers caught in routines that sometimes seem absurd. The pacing feels deliberate, almost lingering, allowing you to soak in their monotonous responses and the odd absurdity of the system. There’s a real tension in the contrast between human emotion and bureaucratic indifference. The interviews are raw, and you almost sense the desperation behind the smiles. It's a documentary that, while frustrating, invites you to reflect on the nature of work and compliance in a modern society. An unsettling, yet fascinating watch.
