The Universal Theory

Synopsis

Original Title: Die Theorie Von Allem

Set in the remote Swiss Alps, Timm Kröger’s new film offers a plethora of stunning images you won’t forget. The film takes place in 1962 and follows a physicist and his supervisor attending a scientific congress. Little do they know that things are going to turn sour when a series of mysterious deaths befall the participants and tensions brew. A love story nestled in this gloriously shot sci-fi thriller metaphorically colours the already breathtaking black and white visuals, and Hitchcockian tones will keep you guessing to the very end. The Universal Theory (2023) is a cinephile's fever dream
