A young physicist attending a scientific conference is drawn into a mysterious world of parallel universes, murder and secrets. Its striking black-and-white photography blends Cold War paranoia with cinematic references to Hitchcock and classic sci-fi noir.

Fascinating. Immersive and intriguing. Loved the noir feel and the references to earlier movies and techniques. Lighting was exquisite. A masterpiece? |

Absolutely compelling. I'm not sure what happened but Johannes seemed to be & I was so sorry for him in his isolation & loneliness. Brilliant. Thank you. |

Disturbing, creepy. Against my expectations quite drew me in. |

Cannot judge really because unfortunately I slept through the second half. |

I was fascinated! Liked it. Filming in the dark stimulates the mind. |

Hard to watch. Still trying to work it out. Very well done though. |

Interesting & gripping film. Certainly in 1962 there were many living parallel lives - hiding their previous lives in the forties & fifties. Clever use of scientific framework to explore the tragedies of this time. |

Loved the style. Intriguing but not sure what happened in the end. |

Not sure I understood what was going on all the time but the cinematography was stunning & I was enthralled throughout wanting to know what happened next. More of these please! |

It was exactly like one of my dreams - bonkers, but entertaining enough to want to continue watching. Hope the actors got danger money for all the fags they smoked! |

Oddball at best. Yes, quantum allegories I suppose, but that's it. |

Could have done with a little editing! |

Not sure about this one, need time to digest. |

Erm... not quite sure what to make of it. It was certainly different - which is good, but also very strange. |

Sorry but I didn't enjoy this film at all. The script writer must have been on LSD or similar. |

I loved the drama that a black & white film can offer - but the time travel aspect was lost on me - if not the entire plot! |

I think that's the weirdest film I've ever sat through. No idea if it was good, bad or indifferent. More light please! |

Good music - original? Should have liked a warning about flashing lights. Afraid I zoned out of the story quite early on and never regained interest. |

Utterly baffling. Grimmer than a physics lesson. |

Too disjointed. |

This was honestly 2 hours of my life I will never get back. I think what happens when the lunatics run the film asylum is a film like this is made! As Spike Milligan says, 'I was going to read a poem by Shakespeare, but then thought no, as he never reads any of mine!' This film makes as much sense! |

This was the worst film I have seen at the Fleet Film club. |
