Synopsis:
Catherine has spent years caring for her brilliant but mentally unstable father, Robert, a world-renowned mathematician. Following his death, she is forced to confront her own fears: has she inherited his groundbreaking genius, or his devastating illness?
The mystery deepens when Hal, a former student of Robert’s, discovers a paradigm-shifting mathematical proof in the house. When Catherine claims she wrote it herself, she must fight to prove her authorship and her sanity. Proof is a gripping, Pulitzer Prize-winning drama about the intersection of love, legacy, and the uncertainty of the human mind.
