Travelling Salesman is an intellectual thriller about four mathematicians hired by the U.S. government to solve the most elusive problem in computer science history - P VS. NP. The four together have created a "system" which could bring about a major change in our civilization and offer a path of progress for the society.
Now, P vs NP problem is a rather infamous problem. Blame its unresolved nature, which renders it unconquerable. Proving P= NP would have significant consequences in mathematical applications as well as practical day-today life. This movie underlines the same and plays with the idea of implications if P=NP were true.
