Handlung
In einer Zeit, in der Frauen nur als Zierde, Mütter oder Arbeitstiere gelten, will die junge Marie Sklodowska mehr erreichen. Sie bricht mit den Konventionen und studiert an der Sorbonne in Paris Physik und Mathematik. Gemeinsam mit Pierre Curie, der später ihr Ehemann wird, gelingt ihr eine der größten Wissenschaftsentdeckungen des 20. Jahrhunderts.
