"The Man Who Knew Infinity" Filmmaker Q&A

The UCI Department of Mathematics, School of Physical Sciences, and Humanities Commons invite you to a panel discussion and Q&A about the new film The Man Who Knew Infinity, featuring screenwriter and director Matt Brown, and UCI Professors of Mathematics Nathan Kaplan and Alice Silverberg.

The Man Who Knew Infinity is the true story of friendship that forever changed mathematics. In 1913, Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel), a self-taught Indian mathematics genius, traveled to Trinity College, Cambridge, where over the course of five years, forged a bond with his mentor, the brilliant and eccentric professor, G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons), and fought against prejudice to reveal his mathematic genius to the world. The film also stars Devika Bhise, Stephen Fry and Toby Jones.

The film is screening at Edwards Westpark for a limited time.
