The story of the most elegant and powerful theory in science – Albert Einstein’s general relativity<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Einstein<\/a> presented his formidable theory in November 1915, it turned our understanding of gravity, space and time completely on its head. Over the last 100 years, general relativity<\/a> has enabled us to trace the origins of the universe<\/a> to the Big Bang<\/a> and to appreciate the enormous power of black holes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To mark the 100th anniversary of general relativity, this film takes us inside the head of Einstein to witness how his idea evolved, giving new insights into the birth of a masterpiece that has become a cornerstone of modern science. This is not as daunting as it sounds – because Einstein liked to think in pictures. The film is a magical visual journey that begins in Einstein’s young mind, follows the thought experiments that gave him stunning insights about the physical world, and ultimately reaches the extremes of modern physics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
