Hidden Figures
Three female African-American mathematicians play a pivotal role in astronaut John Glenn's launch into orbit. Meanwhile, they also have to deal with racial and gender discrimination at work.
About Hidden Figures
Three brilliant African American women at NASA, Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, serve as the brains behind the early years of the U.S. space program. Their mathematical brilliance and desire to dream big enables the stunning human achievement of putting an astronaut into orbit and bringing them back safely.
Note: Hidden Figures is showing in standard, non-IMAX format.
