Opening in select U.S. theater over the next few week , Dark Matter is a movie about aperient go wrong . No , the Hadron Collider does n’t punch a muddle in reality . Instead , it ’s about a much little and more personal explosion that takes place when a new Formosan graduate student named Liu Xing comes to the U.S. to study cosmology , and feel out that skill is n’t about truth but politics . Based on a true story , Dark Matter explores what pass when Liu Xing ’s extremist possibility of glum issue in the early 1990s clash with those of his academic adviser . When he refuse to toe the line , his adviser disown him and Liu Xing hurtles towards personal devastation . The premise is challenging , and writer Billy Shebar based his main character ’s idea on real theory about superstrings .
Shebar claims that the “ morose matter particle ” predicted by Liu Xing could bend out to be “ the actual dark matter present in the universe . ” If so , Shebar boasts , “ he could become the first fabricated character to win a Nobel Prize . ”
While those claims may be a little far - fetched , the picture itself sound like one of those uncommon moment where fiction about scientists turn out to be as strange and haunt as scientific discipline fiction . Though not as phantasmagoric as Darren Aronofsky ’s Pi , the flick deal with some of the same crash between science - for - truth and science - for - prestige .
