Synopsis

In 1976, college dropout Steve Jobs (Ashton Kutcher), together with his friend, technical whiz-kid Steve Wozniak (Josh Gad), sparks a revolution in home computers with the invention of the Apple 1. Built in the garage of Jobs' parents, the Apple 1 -- and the subsequent formation of Apple Inc. -- changed the world for all time. Though he's viewed as a visionary, Jobs' tenure as Apple's leader is a rocky one, leading to his eventual ouster from the company he co-founded.
