While on duty, two emergency paramedics, David Vaughn (Johnny Messner) and Victor Hernandez (Jon Huertas), receive a call from a young girl named Libby, whose mother has lost consciousness in a deserted area. However, when they arrive there they are captured by members of a cult called the Quanta Group.
The two men discover that the Quanta Group is composed of scientists, philosophers and mathematicians and led by a man who calls himself "The Teacher" (Daniel Benzali).
