Plot.
Europe, 1620: The well-known astronomer and mathematician Johannes Kepler, who teaches as a professor in Linz, receives the message that his mother is prosecuted as a witch in Württemberg.

Kepler tries desperately to convince the prosecutors of the absurdity of their allegations with rational arguments.
