Paperland: The Bureaucrat Observed (1979) torrent

Synopsis:

Bureaucracy shapes our lives and guides us from the cradle to the grave.
This documentary lays bare the idiosyncrasies of bureaucracy, whether in
Canada, Austria, Hungary, the Vatican, or the Virgin Islands. It also
attempts to make the functioning of the public service more comprehensible.
The absurdities of bureaucratic behavior are exposed with humor and
irreverence.
