A human drama inspired by events in the life of
John Forbes Nash Jr., and in part based on the
biography "A Beautiful Mind" by Sylvia Nasar.
From the heights of notoriety to the depths of
depravity, John Forbes Nash Jr. experienced it all.
A mathematical genius, he made an astonishing
discovery early in his career and stood on the
brink of international acclaim. But the handsome
and arrogant Nash soon found himself on a
painful and harrowing journey of self-discovery.
