Mendel – otec genetiky

In this intimate biographical portrait, a shy Augustinian monk from a rural Galician town emerges as a quiet catalyst for a modern science revolution. Set against a world in upheaval, the film traces a patient, methodical mind through the meticulous study of pea plants, where patience and observation unlock patterns unseen by his era. Emphasis rests on curiosity, humility, and the stubborn persistence that drives discovery, as he redefines heredity with simple experiments and careful notes. The story unfolds with a gentle tension between faith, duty, and the hunger to uncover how traits pass from one generation to the next, shaping future generations of inquiry.
