Complete Record: Waking up one morning to the all too familiar frustrations and callous impersonality of big city life a mailman decides to fight back. He will be a one man army against complex bureaucratic machinery, anonymous no longer, taken advantage of no further. Nobody knows who he is, or cares. His co-workers superficially acknowledge him, and the citizens whom he serves see him only in terms of his function. The particular day starts off gloriously when the leg of his neighbor’s wife comes crashing through his ceiling, and our hero tries without success to get his landlady to make repairs. He then tackles the Housing Authority, where equally thwarted clerks treat him like a number. But today our hero refuses to be assigned any old place - he wants to be heard, at once! The bureaucracy proves more stubborn than he. Defeated and helpless, one individual lost among many, his angry campaign only led to more frustration.
