From the heights of notoriety to the depths of depravity, John Forbes Nash, Jr. experienced it all. A mathematical genius, he made an astonishing dicovery early on in his career and stood on the brink of international acclaim. But the handsome and arrogant Nash soon found himself on a painful and harrowing journey of self-discovery, eventually triumphing over this tragedy, and finally-late in life-receiving the recognition that had always eluded him. Movie inspired by the true story about the legendary life of one man, bases on Sylvia Nassar's acclaimed novel.
