Plot – In 1948 John Forbes Nash, Jr. was attending Princeton University on one of the most prestigious scholarships, but he was not a classical student of the time, one that came from a family that had received an university education for generations. From the lower middle class, something of a slob, grumpy and not accustomed to the life of youngster, the mathematician, who will also suffer from schizophrenia, develops the economic game theory: according to him, financial market fluctuations can be precisely calculated. His ideas do not go unnoticed and a representative of the Department of Defense offers him a job, but mental illness will determine his life.
