In Mike Cahill's new film, I Origins, there's a scene where atheist scientist Ian (Michael Pitt) is told by
an Indian woman of faith about a pujari friend who admitted that if science were to ever invalidate his beliefs, he would accept that reality.
We follow each through outrageous accusation and unrivaled success, through
faith and perseverance and dogged self - recrimination, whether in the dock awaiting complete disgrace or at the height
of fame while desperately in love with a
woman not his wife, and gradually realize that George is half -
Indian and that Arthur becomes the creator
of the world's most famous detective.
