If one expects having Einstein's role in the Manhattan Project revealed, the title has mislead him. The real drama of this story is summarized in Einstein's conclusion:
"Organized force can only be opposed by organized force."
This must have been devastating for a die-hard pacefist communicating with Ghandi, Russell and others. This could have been of outmost relevance in our times of wars in the Ukraine and Gaza where "killing for peace" is fiercely debated and remains morally as unsolvable today as it was for Einstein and his times.
Telling a story of frustrated pacifism using Einstein's bio would have been of greater relevance than this far fetched junctim between Einstein and the bomb.
Another annoying feature of the piece, as with many cheap digital productions nowadays, are over-used green screen and post-production effects. And I have seen most of the used historical footage in much better quality the the used clips here (eg Hitler's speeches) which didn't add to the overall impression of this production.
