The latest Netflix offering, directed by Chava Cartas, is a Mexican film that innovatively merges the science fiction genre with social issues, particularly gender disparity in academia during the 1960s. It follows physicists Nora and Hector, who, after years of unrecognized effort, accidentally travel 59 years into the future. Their humorous and heartwarming adaptations to modern life highlight both the challenges faced by women in science and the absurdities of contemporary society, particularly in how it values technology and communication.
The film delicately tackles themes of gender inequality in academia while weaving an engaging narrative about time travel, forcing the characters to adapt to a modern world.
With its blend of science fiction and social commentary, the movie sheds light on women's contributions in fields typically dominated by men, making Nora's journey both personal and universal.
