RCL.
E 'of the symbol that indicates a category of workers with physical problems, such as disk disease and tendonitis, linked to years of service in working conditions at the limit of sustainability.
It 's the title of a documentary film that tells the story of Fiat's Pomigliano d'Arco in the aftermath of a referendum concerning their working conditions, proposed by the leadership of Fiat workers of the assembly.
's a story that has as protagonists of the simple workers, workers in the metalworking sector, some of them in layoffs and poor working conditions in still others, who saw the dignity to be voted on workplace, seeing forced to come to terms with a new business model proposed by Sergio Marchionne, CEO of Fiat Group and Chrysler, perhaps not even imagine what it means to be part of an assembly line.
What the protagonist narrator tries to tell Paul Rossi is the nightmare with open eyes who are living thousands of workers in an Italian plant that is more industrial development and its harsh laws. In a country where the "great works" came years ago, embodying a solid business model backed by government guarantees, an opportunity to re-launch of a town in southern Italy and a solid alternative to the agricultural sector that dominated before the advent industry.
Designed by Alessandro Di Rienzo and directed by Massimo Carboni, Rcl is an attempt to stage what Paul Rossi describes as "civil surrealism" or situations that transcend the boundaries of acceptance so as to become almost a science fiction story. Landed in the desolate station Pomigliano, Paolo Rossi and his crew to clear the mold "Brancaleone", seeking material for an imaginary film that will tell the story of workers in assembly lines and their difficult relationship with one of the toughest jobs and alienation of this century, a relationship made even more strain on the circumstances in which these metal workers are forced to work.

Project as "the answer to the Pomigliano Avatar" in a flurry of hyper-real situations, but they serve to underline the condition of workers in the South, where, who foolishly more poetically, the families do not give in layoffs even to give birth to new creations. Perhaps they will pursue their own trade union struggle hard to secure for their children better conditions than those who are now forced to endure. Here is the reality.
