Synopsis:
1953
America
was
a
time
ripe
for
change
for
women
and
when
Katherine
Ann
Willis
(Julia
Roberts)
arrives
to
teach
Art
History
at
Wellesley
College,
she
finds
the
institution
drowning
in
outdated
mores.
While
the
nation
struggles
with
the
fears
that
accompany
a
shifting
political
culture,
the
powers
that
be
at
Wellesley
seem
to
want
to
re-corset
the
women
who
had
been
the
backbone
of
the
World
War
II
workforce
just
a
few
years
earlier.
A
passionate
educator,
Katherine
takes
on
the
establishment
and
in
doing
so,
deeply
affects
her
students
who
in
turn
lead
her
to
alter
the
course
of
her
life
forever.
