"The role of mathematics in understanding the world" cycle. Facing the camera of Raymond Depardon and Claudine Nougaret, eight mathematicians respond to a challenge: to describe their passion for mathematics in four minutes. How can we explain their desire to make something that seems sometimes so abstract and elusive accessible to everyone? Documentary makers and mathematicians talk with the public after the film With Raymond Depardon (documentary maker), Jean Dhombres (mathematician), Claudine Nougaret (documentary maker).
