Its a very tricky field/industy to put something so lame as a motion picture up next to it let alone enlighten the unenlightened. ..masses about, well 'not industrilization' for 'the band-aiders' for starts (oh sory doctor if I was on a deserted island I'd want a doctor with me ...not) , assuming you understand that (and the aswell as the 'a doctor can come along' factor), unpersonally enflicted intellect for humanities growth then leave it in the hands of researchers or rather doctors out of a job that need field to continue err the growth of humanity evolutionally. (See very passionate black man 'father' rather largely emphasized hand at the impromptue meeting from peoples support) they really needed it.

'Ford', playing a grumpy, passionate, stone cold science advocate for the betterment of people that 'need' his product of intelligence is enlisted by a desperate father (Fraser) whom to help do anything he can for the fast track to a scientific solution to incureable (yet) desease that has found its way into the siblings of his liniage, does the marketing gig after gig of his life because of breakthoughs (and Fords ok) within the researcher's field for enzimes to create the possible cure.

I did find it blunt, up front, and if you didn't get 'it' or had a bad viewing circumstance you won't like it. Quite deep befor it even gets going. Genre specific, gotta like dramas for being summed up as a 'drama' lol. Not for every body but for everybody if your not expecting much from a pictures sitting. The way of modern mainsteem, simplistic generalization or the step above if you dig deeper.
