The Nature of Time looks at entropy and what it means for having an arrow or direction to time, as well as dealing with broader ideas of faith and beauty in science.
Starting with Boltzmann's formulation of the Second Law of thermodynamics as entropy always increasing to the future, the film deals with the Poincare and Zermelo conjecture, the "Boltmann's Brain" argument and the Skeptical Crisis that follows.

When I studied Physics I was always struck by how we can start with the most basic of fundamental laws, and by building these up with nothing but logic, we arrive at the most surprising philosophical places.

Many films and videos discuss the results of physics but few start from the ground up and walk the audience through the actual physics. By letting the audience see for themselves how these incredible results are arrived at, I hope to demonstrate the emotional journey undergone by those who dedicate their life to working in such abstract disciplines.

This is the journey I have tried to capture in my filmmaking and has been described by many of the best Physicists as almost religious in feeling.
