A movie is being shot about a dissertation

Film director Dmitry Kovalgelsky , author of many documentary films, including physicists-“Waiting for waves and particles” (the film received a media prize at the international festival of popular science films “360 °” in Moscow), shoots a new movie.

All this is evolutionarily explainable on the example of courageous and smart people, “musketeers of the modern era”, and their ideological opponents, no less brave plagiators (after all, to decide on forgery, knowing that they can also be exposed, they also need courage) that daring to the society, simply to abandon the call, simply to abandon the call. Having deceived him ...
