FULL TITLE: Secrets of the Surface: The Mathematical Vision of Maryam Mirzakhani (Arabic Subtitles, for Individual Purchase)
Filmed in Canada, Iran, and the United States, Secrets of the Surface: The
Mathematical Vision of Maryam Mirzakhani examines the life and mathematical
work of Maryam Mirzakhani, an Iranian immigrant to the United States who became
a superstar in her field. In 2014, she was both the first woman and the first Iranian
to be honored by mathematics’ highest prize, the Fields Medal.

Mirzakhani’s contributions are explained by leading mathematicians and illustrated
by animated sequences. Her mathematical colleagues from around the world, as
well as former teachers, classmates, and students in Iran today, convey the deep
impact of her achievements. The path of her education, success on Iran’s Math
Olympiad team, and her brilliant work, make Mirzakhani an ideal role model for
girls looking toward careers in science and mathematics.
