Young Polish woman Maria Sklodowska comes to Paris with one goal - to do science. At the Sorbonne, she begins her research and meets love - Pierre Curie, the only person who accepts her complex character and unconventional view of the world. Together they immerse themselves in the study of radiation, discover two new elements and turn the established ideas of the laws of physics and chemistry in the scientific community upside down. But Pierre and Marie do not suspect what price they will have to pay to gain recognition and benefit humanity.

Sara Rattaro gives the floor to the scientist herself. The pages of the novel are like her diary, full of secret thoughts and hopes. Marie goes through a long and thorny path from an underground university to receiving two Nobel Prizes, facing gender prejudices and overcoming the consequences of public scandals. She destroys stereotypes - both in science and in life - remaining sincere, incredibly brave and persistent. "I Am Marie Curie" is the story of a female genius in a man's world.
