National Science Week film screening: Lisa Meitner – The Mother of the Atom Bomb (PG)
10:30am to 11:30am
Adults (30+)
Free
This is the story of a woman who deserves to be placed on a par with Einstein, Heisenberg and Otto Hahn. The endowed physicist, Lise Meitner is a historical figure that was ahead of her time. As the documentary’s central conflict evolves between a modern woman and a society that only sees family as her mission, it exposes Meitner’s achievements as a scientist and as a pioneer of feminism. Yet, Meitner’s eventful life is not just an exemplary story about the disadvantages women face in scientific research.
