Synopsis:
A young theoretical physicist is diagnosed with motor neurone disease shortly before commencing his PhD in Cosmology at Oxford. Having been advised that he has less than two years to live, Stephen doesn`t give much thought as to what his thesis might be on... But the two years pass and he finds himself alive, engaged to be married and in need of a qualification in order to get a job. His thesis changes the way the entire western world accepts the creation of the Universe. He went on to write `A Brief History Of Time` which explains some of the most complex theories about the evolution of the universe, touching upon such topics as black holes, antimatter, the Big Bang, Einstein`s theory of relativity, and the search for extraterrestrial life.
