The film follows Stephen, a brilliant young scientist who lives in Cambridge, England, in what appears to be the 1920s. His world is turned upside down upon meeting a charismatic and inspirational professor at a garden party, who demonstrates to Stephen and his friends what life would be like if they were one-, or two-dimensional beings. He then proceeds to explain that by manipulating other dimensions, time travel may actually be possible.
Soon after the professor's visit, Stephen, his cousin, Conrad, and his neighbor, Victoria, were horsing around by a well. Conrad throws Victoria's skipping rope down the well. Stephen's mother catches the boys rolling around fighting and drags them into the house by the ears, leaving Victoria alone to play outside by herself. After some time, she decides to climb down the well to get her skipping rope. She never climbs back out of the well.
As Stephen's life unfolds, events lead him to dedicate himself to turning the Professor's theories of time travel into reality. Jealousy, love, obsession, temptation and greed surround him, influencing his fragile mind and the direction of his work.
