There is no bigger mistery than that of life itself. In Switzerland scientists have been spending many years, in a laboratory deep underground, looking for the "God Particle", the elementary particle that can solve the mystery. The LHC, a giant particle accelerator that is over 17 miles long, is the key to the secret. "The Circle" by Wildcard winner Bram Conjaerts focuses less on the scientific research and more on the local population. How do they feel about this unique research? A discerning documentary that criticizes the insatiable human urge to find answers to existential questions.
