Dá pra fazer
Steadicam Operator
Nello, um sindicalista afastado do sindicato por suas ideias avançadas, se vê dirigindo uma cooperativa de doentes mentais, ex-pacientes dos manicômios fechados pela Lei Basaglia. Acreditando firmemente na dignidade do trabalho, ele convence os sócios a substituir as esmolas assistencialistas por um trabalho de verdade, inventando para cada um, uma atividade incrivelmente adaptada às respectivas capacidades, mas indo também de encontro às inevitáveis e humanas contradições.
