Event Description
118min I NC16 (Some Nudity and Disturbing Scenes)
Switzerland, 1962: A young physicist attends a quantum
mechanics conference, only to become entangled in
mysterious events. As paranoia, romance, and
unexplainable phenomena unfold in the Alps, parallel
realities and slippery truths begin to emerge.
Inspired by the cinematic styles of Hitchcock, Lynch and
Lang, Timm Kroger's atmospheric black-and-white noir
thriller, accompanied by a soaring score by Diego Ramos
Rodriquez, is an ambitious, multiverse journey that
collapses the strange and generative worlds of quantum
and cinema.
