Synopsis
Marie Curie, Nobel laureate in physics and chemistry, directs the Radium Institute when World War I breaks out in 1914. She equips a first van with X-ray equipment and goes to the site of the Battle of the Marne. The field hospital she takes care of becomes notable for the few deaths recorded. In addition to the help of Doctor Claudius Regaud, one of her collaborators who works on the treatment of cancer by radiotherapy, Marie Curie receives that of her 17-year-old daughter, Irène. She quickly equips other vehicles, nicknamed by the soldiers “the Little Curies”. Following the different fronts, her work becomes recognised and radiography, which until then was mainly an amusement for the public, became a precious aid for medicine.
