THE RESULTS?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After completing a prolonged experiment, a doctor meets with an accident.

Four days earlier, Roy, an Indian teacher lands on an unmapped island in the Indian Ocean. Roy's quest lies on top of the island's mountain.

On the island, he meets Camila, a scandal prone Spanish actress, Pushkin, a Russian oligarch on the run, General Mali, the deposed President of the Republic of Mali and Farhad, a former Iranian wrestler.

When they exchange stories of their journey to the island, they uncover similar goals, directed by different astrologers with an uncanny resemblance.

On their journey up the mountain, a wolf helps them and a snake challenges them. As they make progress and challenge each other's supremacy, it is evident there is more to the journey than first understood.

Finally, when one of them conquers the top, a strange conversation awaits...and a Dr. Walter West fits right into it.
