The Universal Theory – Watch the trailer for the new mind-bending metaphysical film

Amongst the towering landscape of the Swiss Alps, a gifted young physicist meets an elusive pianist – one who knows things about him that he’s never told another living soul. Before he knows it, his curiosity traps him inside a mind-bending metaphysical web of murder and mystery. Set in 1962, against the backdrop of cold war tensions and a world of paranoid conspiracy, the secrets that lie beneath the mountains are slowly revealed as his investigations deepen and the gripping truth is revealed.

Drawing on the cinema of masters like Alfred Hitchcock, David Lynch and Fritz Lang, director Timm Kröger impeccably blends past and present, reality and the surreal, to create something utterly unique. Ambitious, compelling and visually breathtaking, THE UNIVERSAL THEORY is a lush cinematic mystery not to be missed.

The film is directed by Timm Kröger who co-wrote it with Roderick Warich. It stars Jan Bülow, Olivia Ross, Hanns Zischler & Gottfried Breitfuss.

The Universal Theory opens in UK and Irish cinemas on 13th December 2024.
