A young filmmaker sets out to document a brilliant neuroscientist who has become frustrated with his field’s status quo.

Along the way, it reveals the profound beauty of tiny mistakes and bold predictions — a controversial space where scientific process meets ego, and where the lines between objectivity and ambition blur.
