HIDDEN FIGURES
Based on the untold true story.
They wanted a chance to change their lives.
But they got a chance to change history!
“The incredible untold story of Katherine G. Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monae) — brilliant African-American women working at NASA, who served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation’s confidence, turned around the Space Race, and galvanized the world. The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.”
There’s also a film poster:
Meet the women you don’t know, behind the mission you do.
And a viral about about Katherine G. Johnson:
Mathematics does matter, study hard, and own the world!
The release date of the movie Hidden Figures is set to January 13, 2017.
