About the film

In 1953, Katherine Watson arrives at the prestigious Wellesley College to teach art history. Her students are intelligent and ambitious, yet they have been raised to believe that their main goal is to become successful wives and homemakers. Katherine challenges these expectations through her lessons, encouraging the young women to question the rules they have always followed and think about the lives they truly want. Her unconventional approach clashes with the college’s strict traditions and forces her students to reconsider the choices they are expected to make about love, marriage, and their futures.
