Einstein

Einstein: The Man Behind the Theory In 1905, Albert Einstein upended the scientific community with his theory of relativity, which challenged Sir Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation. But it wasn't until 1911 that he found a way to prove it, using a rare solar eclipse as his chance to demonstrate the warping of space-time caused by matter. This documentary tells the story of Einstein's personal and professional journey, from being ridiculed and struggling to find work, to ultimately making a groundbreaking discovery that changed the course of science forever. Witness the incredible tale of one of history's greatest minds, and how his theory shaped our understanding of the universe.
