A brief history of time

Blu-ray - 2014

Errol Morris (The Fog of War) turns his camera on one of the most fascinating men in the world: the pioneering astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, afflicted by a debilitating motor neuron disease that has left him without a voice or the use of his limbs. An adroitly crafted tale of personal adversity, professional triumph, and cosmological inquiry, Morris₂s documentary examines the way the collapse of Hawking₂s body has been accompanied by the untrammeled broadening of his imagination.
