November 1993. Martin, an American student at the University of Oxford who wants Arthur Seldom as his thesis director. In a public lecture, Seldom quotes Wittgenstein's Tractatus to deny the possibility of truth. Martin contests asserting his faith in the mathematics under reality. Later, Martin and Seldom coincide and find Martin's landlady (also a friend of Seldom's) murdered. Seldom declares to the police that he had received a note with his friend's address marked as "the first of a series". As Seldom is an authority on logical series, he suspects that a serial murderer is defying his intelligence. Martin, Seldom and Lorna, a Spanish nurse, will try to guess the following terms of the series as murders continue.
With Elijah Wood, John Hurt and Julie Cox.
