Sounds like a most inspiring and compounding movie to watch. This reminds me of the people in the world, and their different perceptions and ways of living. That’s a very neat way of interlinking the mathematical equation with the main story. What a pleasure it is to read the co-writer and director’s message on here.

The same applies to me too! I understand a topic better when someone explains it with Visual Aid.

Very nice. So, how many funny mathematical puns you counted?

Jeffrey – It’s an honor to have you here! Yes, I was shown this movie in a group setting by my minister (who is a self-proclaimed geek) and I loved it so much I had to come home and look it up to find out more about it. It was just SO much fun to watch – you guys did a fantastic job.

Christie,

I’m the co-writer and director of the movie. Came across your site; thanks for watching Flatland and I’m so glad you enjoyed it. We made this movie primarily for math teachers and sci-fi lovers.

To all the folks wondering where to get it, it’s available on DVD or for digital download on the movie’s website http://flatlandthemovie.com.

Hi Evan! Oh yes, there’s all sorts of that real life stuff. I always liked playing with the abstract, the theoretical, while everyone else was saying, “But how would we USE this..?” so I ignored the real story of Flatland. I think you’d like it though – no messy calculations necessary.

Hi Ricky, But these cute little shapes and points would be a lot more fun to look at!

Math . . . . head . . . going . . . to . . . explode . . .

I think as part of being a tech geek, I’m supposed to like math, but, well, let’s just say I don’t. That said, it sounds like the kind of movie where there’s probably all sorts of symbolism and parallels to real life stuff, so my interest is piqued.
