This a nice movie in a way that shows up a different narrative... however not quite clear, a non practicing Jewish mathematician, who is very introverted but is well know since he's looked up for some dark big economical forces and for a group of mystic Jews practitioners of the Kabbalah, he suffers headaches since he was a kid and that affects him all over... he's after a pattern that will solve the secrets of life or so... I'm not a mathematician myself so i don't really know if what he's looking on the movie actually make sense at all. Both the Kabbalah practitioners and the dark economy forces, represented on this cold black woman, seduce him with things he got interested on, so somehow he collaborates with them. At the end, they both try to use him, but he doesn't collaborate. He apparently quick maths at the end.
The movie is in a (for me) weird black&white filter, that is some way interesting.
a curious fact is that at the beginning when he first goes out of his out there are some Asian people practicing tai-chi in a basketball court.
