Who actually does science? And why is it still “the scientist” in our minds?
In PICTURE A SCIENTIST, a biologist, a chemist and a geologist tackle these questions and take the audience on a journey through the experiences of their academic careers - as women in science.
They are exposed to discrimination from the very beginning of their careers. Women scientists have to fight a constant battle for recognition, respect and equality.
The documentary gives hope, because it tells the story of strength and solidarity, of courageous female scientists who stand up to injustice and set a global discourse of change and equality in motion. Set in futuristic laboratories and spectacular fieldwork locations, it highlights the invaluable work of female researchers and how science can be transformed for the better through systematic and structural change - for a world in which girls can realize their dream of research, for a world full of female biologists, astronauts, chemists and mathematicians.
