In the glow of the 1920s, sisters Joey King and Abby Quinn work as dial painters, applying luminous radium to watch faces with a carefree spirit. The prestigious job promises glamour and independence, but a sinister truth begins to surface as the girls and their coworkers fall mysteriously ill. Directed by Lydia Dean Pilcher and Ginny Mohler, this gripping historical drama follows the young women’s harrowing journey from factory floors to courtrooms as they confront a powerful corporation that values profit over their lives. Facing intimidation and societal dismissal, they must find the courage to fight for justice, sparking a battle that would change worker safety forever. A poignant and tense narrative of resilience, "Radium Girls" illuminates a dark chapter of history with powerful performances and an unflinching look at the cost of corporate greed.
