Exiled in London, 2009, and haunted by the painful memories of their old life marked by dictatorial control and oppression, Petra Sakovich and Ricardo Lavin are filled with ambition and desire for revenge. The two intellectuals create a mathematical theory which gathers all the variables that sustain the power of a dictatorial government and represents them in a single equation. When The Theory is executed, it creates a collapse in the target regime, giving path to a democratic society.

But The Theory is too powerful for them to contain. As the process of overthrowing dictators advances, they unleash a monster product of their obsession. What once was their dream, starts to become a nightmare that forces them to run away from their own downfall.

In a vibrating story, suspenseful, tragic and awash on pure hope and resilience, "The Theory" exposes how careless of consequences the human actions can be, if they are propelled by a good combination of love and ambition.
