Two sisters learn more about this research scientist who discovered X-rays.

During World War I, families are fleeing war-torn Paris. The Boudreau sisters, Martine and Eliane, whose photographer father is on the Front, decide to aid in the war effort by catching spies.

A woman’s strange finger-tapping and suspicious comings and goings make her a prime suspect. The woman is in fact Nobel prize-winning scientist Marie Curie. Curie is helping to save lives with her research, although she must fight narrow-minded attitudes to do so.

Martine and Eliane learn the importance of fighting for one’s convictions when their own father is saved with a correct diagnosis by Curie and her new X-ray machine.
