Betrayal at the bench

Article Abstract:

The movie 'Schlafer' directed by Benjamin Heisenberg won the 2005 Midas Prize for the best European drama featuring science. The movie is different from regular science fiction movies, in that, the director has chosen to set a study of post-9/11 paranoia in a molecular-biology laboratory, in an unusually realistic setting, even though the plot itself has nothing to do with science.
