Annika, a young scientist, is kidnapped. Her fiancé, Professor Berg, who is desperately searching for her, is also in mortal danger. The stakes involve data for a groundbreaking invention. A fanatical, ruthless cult and a powerful, unscrupulous corporation are after the secret. It becomes a race against time. The trail leads to Prague, where Professor Berg mysteriously awakens in a mysterious house after an accident. The "awakening" is the central concern of every initiation and spiritual training. This particular state of consciousness, in which one realizes that one exists, is the foundation of every self-determined personality and the primary goal of all occult traditions. Most believe that "being awake" means keeping the senses and eyes open and staying up during the night. There is nothing that a person is more convinced of than that they are.
