Pi, also titled \\u03c0,is a 1998 American surrealist psychological thriller film written and directed by Darren Aronofsky. It is Aronofsky\'s directorial debut, and earned him the Directing Award at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival, the Independent Spirit Award for Best First Screenplay and the Gotham Open Palm Award. The title refers to the mathematical constant pi.[nb 2] Like most of Aronofsky\'s films, Pi centers on a protagonist whose obsessive pursuit of ideas leads to severely self-destructive behavior.
