The Man Who Knew Infinity (12A)

Srinivasa Ramanujan is a 25-year-old shipping clerk in 1913 Madras, who should be spending as much time as possible with his wife Janaki. Instead, he fills countless notebooks with his mathematical musings. He sends some of these proofs to revered academic GH Hardy, who invites Ramanujan to Trinity College, Cambridge to exercise his beautiful mind. Against the wishes of his bride and his harridan mother, Ramanujan accepts the invitation and travels by sea to the hallowed seat of learning.
