Dir. MARIE NOËLLE

Cast/ Obsada

The most turbulent five years in the life of a genius woman between 1905, when Marie Curie comes with Pierre Curie to Stockholm to be awarded the Novel Prize for the discovery of the radioactivity and 1911, when she receives her second Nobel Prize.
1906 Pierre Curie is run over by a horse-drawn carriage and tragically dies on a Parisian street. Maries unique marriage and happiest lifetime is destroyed in one go. Left alone with two young daughters, the widow has responsibilities that would overwhelm the strongest man but she faces her duties with greatest courage as a mother and a scientist. Despite her sorrow, she continues the work that she began with Pierre, taking especially the Curie-therapy they developed against cancer to great heights. But science is primarily a mans world and Maries audacity is not well seen by everybody. As she embarks on passionate affair with the mathematician Paul Langevin, she provokes a huge scandal and the tabloids drag her name through the mud. Alarmed by all the malevolent headlines, the Swedish Nobel Academy, who wanted to award her a second Nobel Prize (making her the first person ever to receive two), forbids her to drive to Stockholm to fetch her award. Doesnt a woman in love earn recognition for her work?


Piec najbardziej burzliwych lat w zyciu genialnej kobiety: od 1905 roku, kiedy Maria Sklodowska Curie z mezem Pierrem przyjezdza do Sztokholmu, aby odebrac Nagrode Nobla za badania nad zjawiskiem radioaktywnosci do 1911, kiedy otrzymuje druga Nagrode Nobla.
Rok 1906, Pierre tragicznie ginie w wypadku na paryskiej ulicy. W jednej chwili najszczesliwe chwile zycia Marii i jej wyjatkowe malzenstwo staja sie wspomnieniem. Pozostawiona samotnie z dwoma coreczkami wdowa dzwiga odpowiedzialnosc, ktora moglaby powalic najsilniejszego mezczyzne. Stawia czola obowiazkom matki i uczonej z najwieksza odwaga. Pomimo zaloby kontynuuje prace rozpoczete z Pierrem, szczegolnie badania majace wplyw na leczenie raka. Ale swiat nauki jest glownie swiatem mezczyzn i nie kazdemu podoba sie smialosc Marii. Kiedy wychodzi na swiatlo dzienne jej namietny romans z matematykiem Paulem Langevin wybucha skandal, brukowce obrzucaja ja blotem. Zaalarmowana naglowkami gazet Szwedzka Akademia Nauk przyznajaca Nagrode Nobla zakazuje jej przyjazdu do Sztokholmu po odbior drugiej nagrody, ktora otrzymuje jako jedna kobieta w historii tego znaczacego wyroznienia. Czy zakochana kobieta nie ma prawa do uhonorowania jej dokonan?
