“Genius. Madman. God.”
An ageing Serbian neuroscientist lives a reclusive life in Athens, having been branded as a paranoid schizophrenic for his radical research on the effects of electromagnetic radiation on humans. But when, decades later, he is rediscovered by a group of young dreamers who are trying to change the world through his ideas, he decides to quit his medication and join them in their scientific commune, risking his sanity in pursuit of a higher goal.
