Description

A charismatic stranger who calls himself the Time Traveller gathers a small, curious group in a modest Finnish town hall. With silver‑glinting eyes and a gentle, persuasive manner, he challenges the audience’s most basic assumptions about geometry, insisting that the familiar three dimensions are incomplete without the fourth—continuous time. Through lively debate with a spirited skeptic named Filby, the Traveller sketches a provocative picture of reality where objects must possess not only length, width and depth, but also an uninterrupted existence through time.

The opening scenes weave together philosophical musings, witty repartee, and a hint of speculative science, inviting listeners to reconsider how we perceive the world around us. As the discussion deepens, the Time Traveller hints at a device of his own making that could reveal hidden layers of the universe, setting the stage for an adventure that blends intellectual intrigue with the wonder of possible futures. This early encounter promises a thought‑provoking journey into the nature of space, time, and human understanding.
