In late 19th-century Paris, Marie Curie (Rosamund Pike) meets fellow scientist Pierre Curie (Sam Riley), and the two eventually marry. In addition to raising two daughters, they go on to change the face of science forever by their discovery of radioactivity.
In 1903, the pair jointly win the Nobel Prize in physics for their discovery, making Marie the first woman to win the esteemed prize. Marie's commitment to science remained unwavering and her work went on to win her a second Nobel Prize, taking with it the responsibility for discoveries that changed the world.
