    This Hitchcockian sci-fi is a mind-bending metaphysical web of mystery and murder. 

    1962, Switzerland: At a conference held amid the towering landscape of the Swiss Alps, a gifted young physicist meets an elusive pianist who somehow knows things about him that he’s never told another living soul. With majestic footage of the astonishing natural world that surrounds its characters, The Universal Theory effectively evokes the intense paranoia of the postwar era. It’s an endlessly inventive thriller and a cinematic fever dream.
