Genius = Inspiration + Obsession + Compulsion / Sacrifice..

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2005)

Results are in the fractions. The infinite.In-Finitefinalityorder within chaosdivine knowledge.madness. Madness, for no human knowingly, beyond the ancients, yet has been able to handle the divine truththe absolute truththe truth which encompasses allthe binding truththe truth which gives the ultimate knowledge of creation.
Max Cohen (played brilliantly by Sean Gullette) is a renowned mathematician obsessed beyond reason in finding the 'reason' to the underlying truth in numbers being in everything, and everything having a pattern. His goal: Find it within the stock marketnot for personal gains, for he refuses large payouts by Wall Street to work for them, but solely for the knowledge and truth.
On his journey toward madness, or is it his mad journey toward truth?he sacrifices his own physical and mental health by self medicating, injections of adrenaline, sleep deprivation, sex deprivation, etc., until he finally finds it. Once he does, he made it through the maze of madness to find peace, salvation and the key to the universe. However, the Wall Streeters and Kabbalists pressure him for his knowledge. He maintains that the knowledge was given to HIM, not to THEM because they are unworthy. So he finally does the only thing a sane person would do to prevent them from having it.something INSANE.
Enjoy this outstanding collaborative work of art.
