In a matter of years, astrophysicist Stephen Hawking met the love of his life, was diagnosed with the neurological disorder that paralyzed him, and made the initial breakthroughs that founded his revolutionary scientific work. THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING is the extraordinary and uplifting story of one of the world’s greatest living minds and of two people defying the steepest of odds through love.

Based on the memoir “Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen,” by Jane Hawking, the film is directed by Academy Award winner James Marsh (MAN ON WIRE).
