Synopsis

Synopsis

Meet six women of power: scientific researchers, technological leaders, mathematical or engineering geniuses. In this film, they reveal themselves: they share their journey, showcase their groundbreaking work and reveal the obstacles they have overcome as girls and women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. In celebrating these contemporary pioneers, we are also highlighting a dark truth. Throughout history, women scientists have been silenced, their contributions relegated to the shadows. Will this generation rewrite the rules and create a new legacy?
