Synopsis: 

Welcome to Piatra Neamt, Romania. In a little office near the town hall, job-seekers are lining up in front of one single interlocutor. So begins a role play observed through their faces, eyes and expressions, which creates an allegory about power. From absurd to tragedy and from comedy to solemnity, this movie is shaped like a play of Ionesco but is a documentary.
