London, 1953. The race is on among the world's leading scientists to unlock the secret of life itself: the DNA molecule. The promise of wealth and lasting fame drives the breakneck pace of the research. Then Rosalind Franklin, the one woman in this crowded field of male scientists, further isolated by her Jewish faith, makes a breakthrough. In an environment of desperate ambition, with its shifting rivalries, alliances, and betrayals, Dr. Franklin has the talent and grit to win it all – if she can get in the game.
