MADNESS AND GENIUS - Trailer for the Film
Frank, a once brilliant scientist and professor, is haunted by a discovery in his past and may be quietly going mad. Jordan, a student with a photographic memory, is on the verge of flunking out of school and desperately attempts to attach himself to his reclusive and eccentric professor. Nigel, suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease and feeling socially inept due to his physical inadequacies, tutors Jordan as a means to maintain some kind of bond. Through these intertwining three lives, secrets unfold in a provocative tale of science, philosophy, blackmail, isolation and hope.
