The brilliant physicist Lise Meitner is a historical figure that was ahead of her time who deserves to be placed on par with Einstein, Heisenberg and Otto Hahn.

Austrian physicist Lise Meitner was one of the scientists responsible for the discovery of the element protactinium and nuclear fission. Meitner was overlooked in 1946 for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for nuclear fission. It was awarded only to her long-time colleague Otto Hahn.

Meitner's eventful life is not just an exemplary story about the disadvantages women faced in scientific research. Against the historical background of the Holocaust, it becomes an emotional drama of a pacifist who, through her beloved work, creates the foundation for the deadliest weapon of all time.

The film forges a bridge from the beginning of the 20th century, through the Cold War, up to now, where nuclear weapons in the hands of superpowers and insane despots constantly threatens humanity with absolute destruction. A historical journey exploring the links between science, politics, friendship and responsibility.
