The Story of Everything

2026 · Eric Esau · Brian Bird Jason Pamer Jens Jacob Eric Esau · 97 minutes

The Story of Everything is a 2026 American documentary film directed by Eric Esau and written by Stephen C. Meyer, based on Meyer's 2021 book Return of the God Hypothesis. Backed by the Discovery Institute, the film argues that discoveries in cosmology, physics, and molecular biology — including Big Bang cosmology, the fine-tuned universe argument, and the informational complexity of DNA — point to an intelligent cause behind the universe. It features interviews with two dozen scientists, philosophers, and engineers associated with the intelligent design movement, including Michael Behe, James Tour, Douglas Axe, William Dembski, and John Lennox, along with entrepreneur Peter Thiel.
