Set against the backdrop of the 1960s, 'Lessons in Chemistry' charts the extraordinary journey of Elizabeth Zott, a formidable chemist whose life is anything but predictable. When her career is sidelined by the rampant sexism at Hastings Research Institute, Elizabeth finds an unexpected avenue of influence as she becomes the star of a revolutionary cooking show, 'Supper at Six'. Her approach to cooking is as scientific as it is subversive, inspiring a generation of women to challenge societal norms. Elizabeth's narrative is not just a tale of personal triumph but a witty and heartfelt critique of the era's gender dynamics, laden with humor and poignant observations.
