Why watch the movie The Young Observant?
"In this documentary drama, director Davide Maldi dives beyond the surface of professional hospitality, the antechamber of prestige, renown, and the very idea of “serving” others, to analyze the experience of its apprentices. With a framing precision that curiously recalls Wes Anderson (but stripped of artifice), 'The Apprentice' explores adolescence as a rite of passage into adulthood, with the cruel realities it entails in a landscape of classism and discrimination in which, however, they are trained to be compliant and servile."
