PROJECT INSIGHT The Hub Einstein and the Bomb
Carefully reenacted with the support of historical footage and imagery, Netflix's 2024 release of Einstein and the Bomb has brought Albert Einstein's greatest discovery back to life. The feature length docu-drama uses the iconic physicist's real words, alongside expertly crafted visual effects and motion graphics, to contextualise Einstein's journey to his Theory of Relativity and the resulting creation of the atomic bombs that devastated the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.
Renowned for its expertise in cosmology, history and natural history VFX, longtime Netflix collaborator Lux Aeterna delivered the inspiring visual effects that depict Einstein's earliest memories through to his final days in the United States in 1955. The film was released in February.
