ABSTRACT:

Chaos: The Movie records the birth of a new science. This new science offers a way of seeing order and pattern where formerly only the random, the erratic, the unpredictable – in short, the chaotic – had been observed. Chaos is a science of everyday world, addressing questions every child has wondered about: how clouds form, how smoke rises, how water eddies in a stream, how the red spot of Jupiter forms.
Chaos: The Movie is a history of discovery. It chronicles, in the words of the scientists themselves, their conflicts and frustrations, their emotions and moments of revelation. After watching the movie, you will never look at the world quite the same way again.
