Synopsis

The epic origin story of the atomic bomb

J. Robert Oppenheimer was a gifted and driven theoretical physicist. He was a leading figure of the Manhattan Project – a codename for the effort to develop weapons strong enough to lead the Allied Forces to victory and tightly secure the United States' role as a world’s super power. The events of the film take place during the Second World War while Oppenheimer worked for the Los Alamos Laboratory where the bombs were created. Charting his personal relationship to the science behind the atomic bomb all the way to the political fallout of his later life, Oppenheimer's journey is laid bare as he navigates the new world he helped create.
