In 1985 MIT grad students search for gravity. 30 years and 1 Nobel prize later they find it. The story – told as it happens – covers each end of the most famous discovery in physics. Through cartoons and a cow avatar, the clueless, but educable, filmmaker guides us through science that even the scientists themselves don’t understand. Many things have changed; many things have NOT changed: scientists are human beings after all!
