Drama - American independent cinema is alive and audacious in this award-winning, mind bending, festival favorite. STRING THEORY starts as a seemingly simple morality tale centered on the fate of a beat-up church in Santa Monica, but ends as a psychedelic meditation on the modern experience of God! - Rico E.
