Discover the secret of the unified theory, and come on a journey that leads to the Arctic… and to something magic.

Based on a short story by Austin Kenny and featuring the voices of John Hurt and Stuart Townsend, 23 Degrees, 5 Minutes follows an old explorer close to freezing in the Arctic as he re-lives the events that brought him there.

From his student days at Trinity College in Dublin, studying under the enigmatic Professor Orit, the same professor who was driven to madness by his obsessive pursuit of the unified theory. Convinced that the answer somehow lay in the relationship between the numbers two, three and five, Professor Orit's obsession started the journey which led his former student to the top of the world.
