Simple Relativity – Understanding Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity

Einstein’s theory of General Relativity tells us that gravity is caused by the curvature of space and time. It is a remarkable theory that has been confirmed by countless observations, such as gravitational lensing, light deflection on the sun, redshift in the gravitational potential, black holes and their shadows, and gravitational waves. However, we already know that General Relativity cannot be quite right because it does not fit together with another well-confirmed theory that is quantum mechanics. To resolve this tension, physicists think that we need a theory of quantum gravity.


The film is an attempt to explain Albert Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity with a simpler visual representation and exciting animation. In a time when our day-to-day life is surrounded by technology, most people find it daunting to understand the science and its application. Simple Relativity is an attempt to excite the viewer about this complex phenomenon of Relativity so that they can approach this, and science in general, with a lot more curiosity rather than inhibition.
