What The Most Unknown Is About

Nine scientists step outside their own fields and go to visit each other. A microbiologist descends into a cave, a physicist hunts for dark matter, a consciousness researcher runs an experiment in her laboratory, an oceanographer goes to the bottom of the sea. Each hands a question on to the next: How did life begin? What is time? What is consciousness? How much do we actually know? Ian Cheney directed the documentary with Werner Herzog as an adviser. What it puts at the centre is not the answers but the questions themselves. Showing scientists not as experts but as beginners outside their own field also breaks the usual shape of the science documentary.
