1) The documentary follows researchers at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, as they use the Large Hadron Collider to study particle physics and uncover secrets of the universe. 2) The researchers hope to recreate the conditions shortly after the Big Bang by colliding particles at high velocities within the LHC, in order to observe how the universe began and test theoretical models. 3) In particular, discovering evidence for the Higgs boson particle would help explain how fundamental particles acquire mass and provide a crucial piece to the Standard Model of particle physics.

- 1. ParticleFever A scene of fields, mountainsand vineyards, the majestic green is surrounding a place where, at the beginning, is a sleep machine. The most big machine constructed by humansbeings, the LHC: LargeHadron Collider, a way to know the true of the Universe. An Indian image appears, soundsof wind and chimes. The symbolism of divinity, creation and destruction. A whisper of the universe and a precious goal: reveal a star, as a flower moves her essence with the wind, the mindsmovements focusing in: is an entity able to create and destroy everything. The documentarymakes an approximation to the CERN: European Organization for nuclear research and one of the producers isthe scientific David Kaplan who is a theoretical physicist and the film is constructed from the points of view of researchersthat explain what they are looking for with the LHC. Like the green field expands at the beginning of the film, the theoretical and the experimentalist scientific makes a conjunction of the abstracts and reals ways to know the true of a universal existence that is connected everywhere. A whiteboard, exact calculations, hands and body’s working in connected spaces to achieve fundamentaland principalssubjects: how the matter is created, which is the deep foundation of naturetheory, all these browsing by those theories exposed and trying to testing all them for a clear objective: gets the knowledge and producea total changeof paradigm in physicist and in the hole word from an experimentalperspective. The ambitious objective of reproducethe physical conditions after the Big Bang trough this collider to make a reproduction and see how the begging of the Universe was. The human dream, the naturedrives, the film is an abstract and experimental show: a key to understand the complex constitution of the universe is the particles of the standard model comprising the matter made of three particles: electron, proton, neutron, and the centralpoint is discover the magic performanceof theHiggs that is differentof the others and is the axis of the model and the crucial piece cause is the responsible of keep together the matter y give material mass to the particles and is the creator of atoms,
- 2. molecules, planets and people. An interesting information is shouted to the intellect: the Internet was made in the CERN to communicatethe information of researchers all over the world. Air space converted to have a great picture of the past, the present and the future. The universe presents to the theoretical and experimentalist like an existence that belong to the center of the structurea mysterious knowledge. The vitality of dreamsseems made of mysterious material, like the Indian image that could symbolizes the creation and the destruction of a connective universe. A whiteboard, exact calculations and the greatest and biggest construction to taste the Higgs existence: the LHC, to collide particles in high velocity and producedisturbsin the field and create/discover the Higgs. The dream of the researcher trough the extremely big machine is focusing to know if Higgs exists and discover that secret knowledge. Like a walker is inspired seeing the clouds and the way appear in the immensity, the road to follow will be how the humanity progressfrom this scientific discovery and the most important thing to the physicists is the compression the basic laws of the nature, for this raison they studies particles because the only thing that flows after the Big Bang are particles that have all the information aboutof howis the starts of the Universe and how converted in the way it is and how will be in the future.
