This is no ordinary selection process as Stuart Hazeldine's thriller The Exam opens in UK cinemas this Friday. Below you'll find a pretty long clip from the film entitled "I am the invigilator", which introduces the group to "the exam". The group has 80 minutes to convince the suits that they have what it takes. The test begins with a blank piece of paper. What next? Read on for the clip and more details, while you can dig on the trailer by clicking here.
"Eight talented candidates have reached the final stage of selection to join the ranks of a mysterious and powerful corporation. Entering a windowless room, an Invigilator (Colin Salmon) gives them eighty minutes to answer one simple question. He outlines three rules they must obey or be disqualified: don't talk to him or the armed guard by the door, don't spoil their papers, and don't leave the room. He starts the clock and leaves. The candidates turn over their question papers, only to find they're completely blank. After the initial confusion has subsided, one frustrated candidate writes 'I believe you should hire me because...,' and is promptly ejected for spoiling. The remaining candidates soon figure out they're permitted to talk to each other, and they agree to cooperate in order to figure out the question; then they can compete to answer it.
At first they suspect the question may be hidden in their papers like a security marker in a credit card, and they figure out ways to change their environment to expose the hidden words. But light, liquids, and other plans all come to naught. Soon enough, the candidates begin to uncover each other's backgrounds, prejudices, and hidden agendas. Tensions rise as the clock steadily descends towards zero, and each candidate must decide how far they are willing to go to secure the ultimate job ..."
im guessing it involves something with people being killed. in the last frame we see the cop guy and the guy with the white button up shirt on with a gun to his head and it gets real bright and we see the black guy or some shit like that idk it looks really good and confusing
