SYNOPSIS:

Henrietta Leavitt explores a woman’s place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries, when women’s ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications, and Henrietta and her female peers believe in both. Their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth as she takes measure of her life, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love.
