A documentary on mathematician Grigori Perelman- The Man who proved the Poincare Conjecture. It is one of the unsolved problems for about 100 years until he saw the way through. A glimpse into the world of higher Mathematics, fame adulation money vs the satisfaction of just pure Mathematics.
"Perelman's Million is gone. But he doesn't care if it was a million dollars or a fistful of coins. He lives in a world where mysteries of the universe are unraveled not for money. To take this money meant to betray your principles. He solved the problem that only few in the world can understand. It is ridiculous to think that he is interested in our opinion."
