Ben Schotz (Boris Van Severen), a man scarred by his past, returns to his native village Moresnet after the death of his father. Together with his childhood friends, including the journalist Zoë Kuypers (Jade Olieberg), he decides to dig up a time capsule they buried 22 years earlier. In that trunk, they find the diary of Ben's brother, Daan. On the last page of that diary, Ben discovers a list of names… with the death dates of his friends. Within ten days, each of them will die. How did this list end up in this twenty-two-year-old diary? And why their names?
In a race against time, Ben and Zoe try to prevent their predicted demise. Their quest leads to Thalamus, a German neuro-technology multinational, owned by the brilliant Nobel Prize winner Robert Rolin (Pierre Bokma) and his successor and granddaughter, Eva Rolin (Leonie Benesch). In this mystery thriller, ‘Moresnet’, two visions of life cross swords: the malleability of life versus the inevitability of fate.
