Victor Frankenstein
Radical scientist Victor Frankenstein and his distinguished colleague Igor Strassmann are carrying out a controversial task. Through a noble vision, the team tries to do their best to help humanity, where they put forward a pioneering and worthwhile research. But, perhaps, Victor's experiments will go very far and may have horrific consequences. Igor is the only person who can bring his friend back from the edge of madness and save him from that disaster.
