An experimental examination of the famous psychological MMP test - developed in Minnesota in 1943 - which has found world-wide use as a job applicant test. Questions and answers from this test form a subtle collage with found footage material: film and advertising clips, sounds from Cronenberg's "Scanners" film, etc. An eerie, almost violent atmosphere is created, which conveys the enormous personal and social pressure under which the job applicantsltest persons are put by this initially trivial sounding round of questions and answers.
