Геній - серіал про наповнене бурхливими подіями життя фізика, який стане справжньою іконою свого часу, - Альберта Ейнштейна. Абсолютно незалежний, геніальний від народження, з розумом, що все піддає сумніву, Ейнштейн принципово змінив наше сприйняття навколишнього світу.
Season one charts how Albert Einstein—an imaginative, rebellious patent clerk, who couldn’t get a teaching job or a doctorate—unlocked the mysteries of the atom and the universe. Based on Walter Isaacson’s critically acclaimed book “Einstein: His Life and Universe.”
Коли у Німеччині 30-х років минулого століття лихоманка антисемітизму досягає свого піку, знаменитий фізик Альберт Ейнштейн (Джеффрі Раш) коливається між рішенням шукати разом зі своєю другою дружиною притулку в Америці, або ж залишитися у Німеччині з солідарності зі своїми друзями - іншими єврейськими вченими.
Будучи студентом політехнічного університету Цюріха, Альберт Ейнштейн (Джонні Флінн) закохується в єдину дівчину в його групі, примхливу Мілеву Марич (Саманта Коллі).
Молодий випускник цюріхського університету Альберт Ейнштейн (Джонні Флінн) намагається звести кінці з кінцями, щоб прогодувати свою сім'ю, і водночас не втрачає надії зайняти посаду, яка дозволить йому потрапити у наукове співтовариство, яке добре відоме своїми традиціями і суворими принципами.
Працюючи вдень у патентному бюро у Берні, Альберт Ейнштейн (Джонні Флінн), за підтримки своєї дружини Мілеви (Саманта Коллі), форсує події і пише протягом одного року відразу чотири наукових праці, серед яких одна присвячена спеціальній теорії відносності, що дозволить потім історикам назвати цей рік його "чарівним роком".
Одночасно з викладацькою діяльністю, Альберт Ейнштейн (Джонні Флінн) починає свою кар'єру в академічному світі, до чого він так прагнув, і розробляє добре відому усім загальну теорію відносності.
Перевізши свою сім'ю у Берлін, щоб займатися роботою і одночасно бути ближче до своєї нової коханої Ельзі (Емілі Уотсон), Альберт Ейнштейн (Джонні Флінн) докладає усіх зусиль для того, щоб довести свою загальну теорію відносності.
Виснажений фізично і психічно, Альберт Ейнштейн (Джеффрі Раш) починає відчувати серйозні проблеми зі здоров'ям, що ставить під загрозу його спроби залишити помітний слід в історії науки.
В умовах розквіту нацизму Альберт Ейнштейн (Джеффрі Раш) приймає рішення виїхати в США разом зі своєю дружиною Ельзою (Емілі Уотсон), проте їх візи для в'їзду в Сполучені Штати виявляються заблокованими держдепартаментом США.
Альберт Ейнштейн (Джеффрі Раш) і Ельза (Емілі Уотсон) переїжджають до Америки, водночас намагаючись врятувати тих, кого вони залишили у Німеччині. Незважаючи на те, що вченого продовжує шалено захоплювати квантова фізика, в умовах зростаючої загрози реалізації планів по розщепленню атома у Німеччині, йому доводиться сконцентруватися саме на цій проблемі.
Після закінчення 2-ї світова війни, старіючий Альберт Ейнштейн (Джеффрі Раш) займає активну позицію громадянина світу. Будучи залученим до розробки атомної зброї, він відчуває за це почуття провини і фокусує свої зусилля на запобіганні майбутніх воєн.
