There's no doubt that the theory of relativity launched Albert Einstein to international stardom, yet few people know that it didn't get indisputable recognition until the 1970's. Now, over 100 years beyond its first international publication, this film profiles scientists who are using the theory to conduct a new generation of experiments that shape our ideas about the nature of time and space.
