Dau, it is believed, is a biopic about the Soviet physicist Lev Landau, who
made an array of discoveries in quantum mechanics and superfluidity (for
which he won the Nobel Prize <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/nobel-prize/> in
1962), while indulging in all kinds of free love while married to his
dutiful wife Kora. Admitted to psychiatric hospitals six times, he perished
six years after a devastating car accident left him greatly impaired.
Khrzhanovsky was apparently drawn to his subject because of the dueling
themes of genius and sexual experimentation in Landau’s life, and it was
enough to intrigue a host of artists and locals to partake in filming.
