Skriti faktorji

Slovenski opis filma:

Drama prinaša neverjetno, vendar resnično zgodbo o elitni skupini temnopoltih matematičark pri NASI, ki so odločilno pripomogle k enemu največjih podvigov v zgodovini: izstrelitvi prvega ameriškega astronavta v orbito.V dolgo zamolčani zgodbi o resničnih temnopoltih znanstvenicah, ki so v času hladne vojne in vesoljske tekme s Sovjetsko zvezo pomagale pri programu izstrelitve prvega ameriškega astronavta v orbito, spoznamo izjemne prijateljice Katherine G. Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan in Mary Jackson. Njihovih imen ne poznamo, vsi smo slišali le za slavne vesoljske pionirje Johna Glenna, Alana Sheparda in Neila Armstronga. Ženske s svojim briljantnim umom sodelujejo pri najbolj zahtevnih projektih NASE, vendar vedno znova naletijo na rasne predsodke, spolna nadlegovanja in kulturna šikaniranja. Kljub številnim vsakodnevnim oviram in zakoreninjenim, nesmiselnim stereotipom se želijo dokazati na svojih področjih ter z vztrajnostjo premikajo meje poznavanja fizike, začetkov računalništva in inženirstva vesoljskih plovil.

Originalni opis filma:

As the United States raced against Russia to put a man in space, NASA found untapped talent in a group of African-American female mathematicians that served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in U.S. history. Based on the unbelievably true life stories of three of these women, known as "human computers", we follow these women as they quickly rose the ranks of NASA alongside many of history's greatest minds specifically tasked with calculating the momentous launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, and guaranteeing his safe return. Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and Katherine Johnson crossed all gender, race, and professional lines while their brilliance and desire to dream big, beyond anything ever accomplished before by the human race, firmly cemented them in U.S. history as true American heroes.
