Neutrino – the poet among the elementary particles

Neutrino – the poet among the elementary particles

The Super-Kamiokande Neutrino Detector is located at a depth of more than a thousand meters in the Japanese mountain Ikeno-yama. This detector is designed for the physical study of the neutrino – an elementary particle that may explain the origin of the universe. International scientists live and work in the mountain village together with the local population and their spiritual leaders.

In this poetic-philosophical documentary, the invisible quantum world and tangible reality come together in encounters with colorful scientists and villagers. A film that starts as a personal journey of discovery into physical knowledge and grows into a universal existential quest.
