The struggle of women to demand their rights; who, amid the First and Second world wars, work as radium paint workers at a factory that produces radium clocks in the USA. This is the story of the extraordinary change and battle of some very young women, who are gradually caught in middle of the glittery, shiny, and dark sides of the radium element, the finding of Madame Curie, which became the most important discovery of its century and almost became a frenzy.
