(CNN)"Hidden Figures" may be set during the space race of the early 1960's, but its themes of hope and inclusion are as timely today as they were during the inception of the space program. The film, which stars Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Mone, details the true story of how African American women at NASA helped get the first Americans into space. Henson, who plays genius mathematician Katherine Johnson, told CNN the story of "Hidden Figures" is especially relevant in the currently divisive American climate.
