The Work I've Done (1984)
If you ask a man who he is, he'll tell you what he does, what his work is. But how will he answer when his job is finished?
A documentary in which retired industrial workers reflect on the promises and anxieties of retirement. Beginning with the Budd Company’s “Retirement Ceremony” in Philadelphia, the film explores how leaving work can mean the loss of routine, identity, and a sense of accomplishment, even as it marks a long-anticipated milestone.
