X+Y follows Nathan, an awkward, idiosyncratic teenager, grappling with the sudden death of the one person who understood him; his father. As he struggles to connect with those around him, he is introduced to an anarchic and unconventional maths teacher who takes Nathan under his wing.

Soon Nathan finds himself selected for the UK Mathematics Squad and, against the odds, representing his country in Taipei. Over there, the academically gifted aren’t bullied but celebrated, envied and even invited to parties. Nathan’s rational brain can cope with the most complex of maths problems just fine, the real test comes when he meets his female exchange partner, Zhang Mei, and has to cope with falling in love; the most irrational thing of all.

Written by James Graham and directed by BAFTA Award winner Morgan Matthews. Starring Sally Hawkins (Blue Jasmine, An Education), Asa Butterfield (The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, Hugo), Rafe Spall (Life of Pi, Prometheus), Jo Yang and Eddie Marsan (War Horse, Sherlock Holmes).

  1. this is another math problem,…..how many unoriginal non thinking youtubers does it take to post the same reply about the music in this scene ? divide the sheep number by the "no original thought" denominator and thats the answer,……..

  2. Nathan got a well earned promotion and got a front row desk
    the class was rearranged the teach got Nathan assigned
    to look at the grades of his class mates to figure out
    the best permutation for the class seating arrangements
    So that no student struggle to hear his lessons
    Due to the violin in class policy of the school .
    Nathan promptly took the violin off the player and placed
    it in the waste paper bin . were it still remains to this day
    the problem was solved Nat a natural horny teenager
    became extremely popular with the young Ladies in his class
    But that's another film

  3. It sounded complicated and inspiring and then I watched it again and actually listened to the problem.

    It sounds way better when he starts creating binary numbers for no reason.
