The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt explores a womans place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries, when womens ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them.Inspiring and touching, the story follows Henrietta as she begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s but isnt allowed to touch a telescope or express an original idea. Instead, she joins a group of women computers, charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who calculates projects in girl hours and has no time for the womens probing theories. As Henrietta, in her free time, attempts to measure the light and distance of stars, she must also take measure of her life on Earth, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love.
Ages: Family-friendly
