Picture a Scientist
Picture a Scientist, an independently produced, full-length, documentary film that was an official selection of the 2020 Tribeca Film Festival, has generated broad critical acclaim. By painting a nuanced, emotional but unflinching portrait of the struggles women in science have faced in recent decades up through today, the film challenges audiences of all backgrounds and genders to question their own implicit biases and move toward change.
