Hendrik Schön was a physicist at Bell Labs who announced, in the space of a few years, that he had built transistors out of single organic molecules, a discovery that seemed to promise computers small enough to grow like living cells. The film traces how that claim fed into wider nanotechnology fears already circulating, including Prince Charles's public worry about self-replicating nanobots consuming organic matter, sometimes called grey goo, and predictions that molecular electronics could make the silicon chip industry obsolete. Physicists and journalists interviewed recall the excitement Schön's papers generated and the unease among researchers who could not reproduce his results. The story then turns to the investigation that found his data had been fabricated, graphs reused across supposedly unrelated experiments, and the retraction of more than a dozen papers from journals including Nature and Science. What the film settles on is less about nanotechnology itself than about how peer review failed to catch the fraud for as long as it did, and what that failure cost the people who trusted the work.
