Fission

In 1906, with a freshly minted Ph.D. in Physics in hand, Lise Meitner faces a future with no prospects, but undeterred by the rampant sexism of the time, she rises to become one of the most important scientists of the 20th century, crossing paths with Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, and Max Planck. Following the rise of Nazi Germany, sexism may be the least of her worries, but destiny awaits Lise in the form of a discovery that will either change the world or end it.
