Unemployed

About This Movie

Unemployed (2019) captures that raw, uncertain post-graduate vibe. The film follows Jordan and Alex as they wait for a train, tethered between two worlds: college life and the looming reality of adulthood. It’s got this laid-back atmosphere punctuated by moments of humor and friendship, reflecting the trials of job hunting in today’s world. The pacing is relaxed, allowing for some genuine character moments, especially with Noah’s character adding a bit of comedic relief. The practical effects are minimal but serve the narrative well, keeping the focus squarely on the dialogue and the chemistry between the leads. It’s all about the struggle of finding one’s place in life in a somewhat ridiculous way.
