Elsevier celebrates International Year of Light 2015, collaborates in the production of documentary film - Einstein’s Light -

STM publisher Elsevier has announced its collaboration in the film production of Einstein's Light which was first presented at the Opening Ceremony of the International Year of Light 2015 (IYL2015) held at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris.

Einstein's Light explores how scientific imagination and innovation advance knowledge frontiers featuring Dr. Albert Einstein and Dutch Nobel Laureate Dr. Hendrik Lorentz as models. The film examines Einstein's discoveries as well as modern examples of scientific imagination and innovation, highlighting organisations on the front edge of discovery. It illuminates Einstein's quest to realise his General Theory of Relativity from his miracle year of 1905 to its finalisation amidst the horrors of the First World War, as he used the properties of light to guide his creative path.

The complete documentary can be viewed in cinemas across the globe in September 2015. The trailer was presented at the Opening Ceremony of the International Year of Light 2015 (IYL2015), held at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. Interested parties may view the trailer at https://vimeo.com/117005227.
