In this one-off documentary, David Malone looks at four brilliant mathematicians - Georg Cantor,
Ludwig Boltzmann, Kurt Gödel and Alan Turing - whose genius has profoundly affected us, but which
tragically drove them insane and eventually led to them all committing suicide.

The film begins with Georg Cantor, the great mathematician whose work proved to be the foundation
for much of the 20th-century mathematics. He believed he was God\'s messenger and was eventually
driven insane trying to prove his theories of infinity.
