See more Rozina C 12/28/2021 love the message of this movie. See more Carlos T 12h **Estrelas Além do Tempo (2016) – 127 min** é um daqueles dramas biográficos que não apenas contam uma história — eles reposicionam a História. Dirigido por **Theodore Melfi**, o filme mergulha na corrida espacial em plena Guerra Fria para revelar o que por décadas ficou à margem: a genialidade de três mulheres negras que foram fundamentais para o sucesso da **NASA**. Aqui, ciência, emoção e crítica social caminham juntos em um cinema que é ao mesmo tempo inspirador e dolorosamente real. **Nota:** 8 See more Garrett B @gmoney637 1d Beautifully acted and well-eritten, Hidden Figures is a emotionally moving and thrilling biopic.
