"Touching Soap Films is a well-prepared video product, introducing the world of minimal surfaces to the general audience. It is recommended to every mathematics club and public library. Some topics such as building tunnels into minimal surfaces are under current mathematical research, which makes the tape also worth watching by experts in this field."
