Plot
Eccentric scientist Ethan Blake and his brother Jacob Blake discover a previously unknown source of energy. They build an aircraft that runs on this innovative "fuel" and assemble a team for scientific research. On the built unmanned aerial vehicle, the group goes on a trip, but an accident occurs, and they make an emergency landing and find themselves in an anomalous zone. In the 1980s, a secret experiment was conducted here. Ethan and like-minded people decide to continue their research. They do not yet know that their ideas about reality will be completely turned upside down. Being in a zone where the usual laws of physics do not apply will allow each of them to find their destiny and learn a lot about themselves.[5]
