The year of 1962. A physics congress in the Alps. An Iranian guest. A mysterious pianist. A bizarre cloud formation in the sky and a booming mystery under the mountain. The Theory of Everything. A quantum mechanical thriller in black and white.

Johannes is a young man on the verge of completing his thesis on quantum theory and is accompanying his grudging professor to a scientific congress in the Swiss Alps where quantum theory is the main topic on the menu.

At the resort, the jazz pianist Karin seems to know more about Johannes than can be easily explained. There is an avalanche, things that go bump in the night, and whole slew of mysteries, which a pair of incompetent yet hard-boiled policemen keep failing to solve.
