Here’s something different for your Video Friday today: a film about math. Of course, that’s not all The Secret Number by Colin Levy is about, but you’ll have to watch to find out more. Or read the description I’m about to quote:
The Secret Number is a short sci-fi (ish) psychological drama that was created over a period of two years by a team of young filmmakers from the Savannah College of Art and Design.
Based on the short story by Igor Teper, The Secret Number is about a man whose world is thrown into question. Psychiatrist Simon Tomlin (Daniel Jones) has a troubling conversation with one of his patients—a brilliant mathematician named Ersheim (Tom Nowicki), who intends to prove the existence of a secret integer between three and four [called “bleem”]. Ersheim’s delusion compels Tomlin to dig deeper, but he only uncovers more questions—about fate, connection… the nature of reality.
Via.
