Employed in an apparel shop at the heart of a busy city, the middle aged Nasir is a hard worker. He speaks humorously and makes others laugh. He is also endowed with a half-baked philosophical attitude, so he likes poetry. On Sundays he composes poems along the lines of Hindi film songs of the sixties and launches them in front of his co-workers.

- The financial crisis of 2008 was a turning point during which the complexity of our financial system manifested itself. It was a web we had spun for over for more than thirty years, and which had brought us prosperity, larger houses and widescreen-televisions. But it turned out to be a giant house of cards. Starting in the US where the Lehman Brothers fell, the crisis spread like wildfire. Only two weeks after Lehman, the crisis infected Europe. 'On Day Eight' is a film about those seven days in 2008, during which all European countries had to work together, despite their differences. Suddenly, every second counted, the next morning, the stock-exchange would open again. Trust became more valuable than money. And unorthodox methods had to be used to save one of Europe's largest banks, FORTIS/ABN-Amro, which was twice the size of Lehman and had the potential of triggering the widely-feared domino-effect of falling banks all over the rest of the European continent and the British isles. Those who held all the power and control now take us back into this almost disastrous week in a harrowing hour-to-hour reconstruction.

- The Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) in Princeton, New Jersey, is a scientific sanctuary focused on deep thought and the exploration of the boundaries of human knowledge. It is the academic home of Albert Einstein, J. Robert Oppenheimer and John von Neumann. Since its foundation in 1930, the IAS has brought forth 33 Nobel Prize winners and 42 fields medalists. One does not apply to IAS, one gets invited. There are no degree programs or experimental facilities at the Institute. The faculty has no classes to teach. Nobody, who's in the IAS, is required to do anything that they don't want to do themselves. The purpose of being at the IAS is to imagine and discover something not existent and providing scientific proof. The World of Thinking follows four faculty members and post doctorates in the IAS as they fatigue to resolve problems that could change the way we understand the world today. Time and concentration are fundamental commodities in deep thinking and we discover that to play with consciousness is often a crucial factor when pushing the boundaries of human knowledge.
