press release: The story of the life and academic career of the pioneer Indian mathematician, Srinivasa Ramanujan, and his friendship with his mentor, Professor G.H. Hardy. (2016|108mins) "This is a Hindu raised in a culture where leaving his home of Madras is forbidden and yet he cuts his hair, scares his mother into believing she’s been abandoned, leaves his wife (Devika Bhise) behind with a promise to send for her, and travels into the great unknown. He isn’t a city resident of Calcutta or Bombay with the pedigree to study at Cambridge. England wasn’t even a dream." -Jared Mobarak, thefilmstage.com Seating is first come, first served with space for 50 attendees. Doors open 1/2 hour before the film start time.
