Loosely based on real events, Strings Attached features three contemporary scientists – two cosmologists and a particle physicist – on a train ride from Cambridge to London to see the play Copenhagen, by Michael Frayn. En route, they discover a theory of the Big Bang. The appearances of Isaac Newton, Marie Curie, and Max Planck bring in another realm of reality, add insight into their contributions, and earthy humor. We are left with the message that life with all its strife, is still a thing of ultimate beauty.
