Einstein and Hawking: Unlocking the Universe
8.0

Two brilliant physicists of our day, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking have each defined humanity's understanding of the universe but their beliefs on how it works do not always align. Through the use of CGI and voice synthesizing technology we bring the two geniuses back to life and together for the very first time.
