After completing my degree in physics, I worked together with my husband Pierre with dangerous radioactive materials. During this time, I discovered two new elements that had never been known before. For my amazing discoveries and work in science, I became the first woman ever to win a Nobel Prize. A few years later, I went on to win a second Nobel Prize, something no one else in the world had ever achieved.

The genre of the film is Romance/Drama.

The plot is: the life of the scientist Marie Curie, twice Nobel Prize winner, who changed the world with her brilliant discoveries,rising to the chair in a society dominated by male power.

in my opinion the film was a tool to better understand the life and times of Marie Curie,

The actors acted well and the setting was suitable for the historical and cultural context.

Discoveries World War one

2025-02-10 07:57:04 UTC

I worked hard trying to discover how science could help doctors. I conducted a lot of research and discovered certain materials that emit invisible rays, which contributed to the development of X-ray machines. I invented and led special vehicles to bring X-ray machines to the battlefields during World War I. I also installed 200 fixed radiographic stations that treated over a million wounded soldiers. Additionally, I discovered an element called radium to help cure sick people.
