Agora



Directed by Alejandro Amenabar. Not yet released in the US, although hopefully it will soon.

A movie about Hypatia:

"a Greek scholar from Alexandria, Egypt, considered the first notable woman in mathematics, who also taught philosophy and astronomy. She lived in Roman Egypt, and was killed by a Christian mob who falsely blamed her for religious turmoil."
