Scientific obsession has severe consequences in the sci-fi thriller releasing this week.

Buffalo 8 releases QUANTUM SUICIDE, written and directed by Gerrit Van Woundenberg, to VOD and digital platforms in the U.S. and UK this Friday, October 18. It stars Andrew Rogerson, Kate Totten, Kennedy Montano, David Skulski, Stephanie Jaskot and Andrea Vawda; the synopsis: “QUANTUM SUICIDE is the story of a physicist on a quest for the Grand Unifying Theory of physics–the ‘Theory of Everything.’ He builds a particle accelerator in his garage and begins his research into the nature of reality. In the process of his experiments, he suffers radiation poisoning, loses his vision, and alienates his partner, who eventually leaves him. But in his obsession he finds clarity and the key to understanding our reality. There is one final test he must perform.”
