This rather spooky series is about a group of astro physicists and astronomers all working together in an isolated part of Norway. They are hoping to discover some mysterious sound that is emitted by the universe and this will occur on a certain day. One of the scientists goes for a walk in the forest and finds a rope. He quickly becomes obsessed in getting to the end of the rope and crashes into a tree, injuring himself. This indicates the rope might have a hold over the group but does it? Eventually a group of them decide to track the rope to see where it ends even though they are all really needed for the important analysis. Apparently they think it's going to be a day trip and apparently don't pack any food or water or spare clothing. Unless there is a second series that links the mysterious universe sound and the rope then I am not sure what the connection was if any. I found this series quite fascinating watching this group of highly-educated types thrown into an alien environment with the strange rope object and was very disappointed when I found there were only three episodes in series one of about 50 mins each. In which case it probably could have been a film. I am committed enough that I am hoping for a series two, as I think there is more to the mysterious rope than meets the eye. Or not.
