Beautiful Young Minds

Beautiful Young Minds was a documentary first shown at the BritDoc Festival on 26 July 2007 [1][2] and first broadcast on BBC 2 on 14 October 2007.[3] The programme follows the selection process and training for the British team to compete in the 2006 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), as well as the actual event. Many of the young mathematicians featured in the film had a form of autism, which the movie links to mathematical ability. The team goes on to win numerous medals at the olympiad, including four silver and one bronze. It was directed and shot by Morgan Matthews, edited by Joby Gee, and featured music by Sam Hooper. It was also screened at the Bath Film Festival in October 2007.
