Parallel Worlds, Parallel Lives (2008)

This documentary takes us on a journey where Mark Oliver Everett, the lead singer of the band Eels, tells us of his journey about his father. Hugh Everett III, was the man who first introduced the idea of parallel universes to the world. Sadly, Mark Everett and his father never had a close relationship. So he never understood the effect his father had on the physics world until this journey. Mark uncovers whom his father's true genius as he reminisces with his colleagues, friends, and tapes. If it weren’t for his father the controversial theory of quantum mechanics that predicts the existence of parallel universes wouldn't have been introduced to us today.
