Finally! The trailer for Lem's "1" is available and it does not disappoint, and while it doesn't have English subtitles yet, we've been told they will be coming soon. The story revolves around a bookstore where every book disappears and is replaced with a copy books simply titled "1" that comprise 1 minute of everything in human existence.

A bookshop renowned for its rare works is mysteriously and completely filled with copies of a book entitled 1, which doesn’t appear to have a publisher or author. The strange almanac describes what happens to the whole of humanity in the space of a minute. A police investigation begins and the bookshop staff are placed in solitary confinement by the Bureau for Paranormal Research (RDI Reality Defense Institute). As the investigation progresses, the situation becomes more complex and the book increasingly well known, raising numerous controversies (political, scientific, religious and artistic). Plagued by doubts, the protagonist has to face facts: reality only exists in the imagination of individuals.

Trailer after the break!
