The Method, as part of the European Film Festival Alquimia, Tornasol Films

The Embassy of Spain and Instituto Cervantes in Amman participate in the 33rd edition of the European Film Festival organized by EUNIC-Jordan and the Delegation of the European Union, with the Spanish film «The Method» by Marcelo Piñeyro. This year’s edition will be screened through the official web page of the European Film Festival.

Synopsis: Madrid. Seven hopeful applicants for a top executive job attend a selection procedure for staff for a multinational company in a skyscraper in offices in the Paseo de la Castellana. After a labyrinth of forms, accreditations and other business red tape the seven participants find themselves together in a cold room where the secretary has taken them to wait for the selection procedure to begin. After warily introducing themselves to each other they wonder if they are being observed by cameras and why the company has infiltrated a psychologist among them who is already examining them. One of the applicants mentions a method of tests, similar to the one they suggested, which is practised in the United States to decide which of them has the profile which fits in the best with the requirements of the fierce business world.
