Higgs, aka the titular hero of our recently premiered documentary film, aka the namesake of the H-mechanism, H-field and H-boson – aka the magic triangle in particle physics – aka the special guest at the last IDFA-screening of our H-film.

At the very same moment at which our HIGGS documentary had its most succesful world première at the International Documentary Filmfestival Amsterdam, particle beams started once again circulating in the world’s most powerful particle accelerator at CERN.
