Physicist Joseph Weber was convinced that Einstein's theory of gravitational waves could be empirically proved and that he had invented the instrument to do it. His single-minded pursuit of gravitational waves leads him to--- well, we won't provide any spoilers here, but it probably doesn't hurt to say that a Nobel Prize was eventually awarded for proving the existence of gravitational waves, just as Einstein predicted. Paula Froehle presents an impressively original look at scientific discovery, bringing to bear the talents of musicians, dancers, and visual artists to plumb the emotional and creative depths of one individual obsessively engaged in the scientific process. This film will be shown online only, and not at the Bay Theater.
