National Theatre Live: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
2012, English. Directed by Nick Wickham & Marianne Elliott.
Christopher, fifteen years old, has an extraordinary brain – exceptional at maths while ill-equipped to interpret everyday life.

But his detective work, forbidden by his father, takes him on a frightening journey that upturns his world.
