Errol Morris (The Fog of War) turns his camera on one of the most fascinating men in the world: the pioneering astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, affIicted by a debilitating motor neuron disease that has left him without a voice or the use of his Iimbs. An adroitly crafted tale of personal adversity, professional triumph, and
cosmoIogicaI inquiry, Morris's documentary examines the way the colIapse of Hawking's body has been accompanied by the untrammeIed broadening of his imagination. TelIing the man's incredible story through the voices of his coIIeagues and loved ones, while making dynamically accessible some of the theories in
Hawking's best-selIing book of the same name, A Brief History of Time is at once as smalI as a singIe Iife and as big as the ever-expanding universe. |
