Authentic and sensitive, Ella Rumpf (RAW, FREUD, TIGER GIRL) plays a highly gifted young woman who has to learn that the great mathematical puzzles cannot be solved at her desk alone.

Prime numbers are Marguerite's great passion. The brilliant mathematics student is the only woman on the doctoral program under the renowned Professor Werner at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. But when she is confronted with a serious error in her work during a presentation to a research committee and loses her temper as a result, her supervisor drops her and devotes himself entirely to the talented doctoral student Lucas. Deeply shaken and full of self-doubt, Marguerite throws everything away and looks for a temporary job. She soon realizes that life outside the university also holds surprising insights and that neither mathematics nor Lucas can be banished from her life so easily.
