Set in a semi-mythical 1960’s, Mercury Poisoning interweaves the stories of three women: Molly, a young American pilot who dreams of being the first woman in space; Valeria, a Soviet textile factory worker who, improbably, beats her to the mark; and Nicole, a Black singer and actress in Hollywood boldly going where no man has gone before.
