Initially, supersymmetric particles were being sought, but without results, and surprisingly the Higgs boson was observed after only two years. Fabiola Gianotti's seminar at the CERN Auditorium, followed by an enthusiastic audience, officially announced the discovery, generating great excitement in the scientific community.

This part highlights Peter Higgs himself, and his winning of the 2013 Nobel prize in physics. This reflected also on Fabiola, who was the first woman to direct the Geneva Institute. Through testimonies and interviews, her extraordinary scientific career is highlighted, along with her modesty, and the account of her childhood dreams.

Fabiola Gianotti's story combines professional growth and creative vision: from her beginnings in international protocol to a meeting with Barack Obama, to designing a space conceived to connect people and ideas, with an ironic ending related to the Higgs Boson.

During a visit to the CERN Control Center, one witnesses scientific research activity and ultra-high energy particle collisions. The account highlights the enthusiasm for discoveries, such as that of the Higgs boson, and the idea that the Universe is still largely unknown.

Comedian and actor Caterina Guzzanti is a guest at a middle school in Afragola, in the province of Naples, a school named after Rita Levi Montalcini. Guzzanti meets with the students from the theater class for a lesson on the imagination, which has a lot of importance in her work but was also very important to the great researcher from Turin, Montalcini.

Rita Levi Montalcini talks about when she won the Nobel Prize in 1986. Her niece, Piera, tells the story from her point of view, and Paola Tarassi, a research student of hers, tells about studying with her after she had already won the Nobel.

Rita Levi Montalcini felt that imagination was the "secret sauce" of her research. And this encouraged her to turn to young people, who have plenty of imagination. She didn't hesitate to teach kids of junior high school age, which came as a surprise to some people, since she was a winner of the Nobel prize.

Rita Levi Montalcini dedicated a great part of her life to young people, especially young researchers, and though she had no children of her own, she felt that all kinds of young people were like sons and daughters to her.

Rita Levi Montalcini talks about what, as a little girl, she wanted to be when she grew up. One of her main goals was to help women, especially ones from poor countries, become what they were meant to become.

As a child, Rita Levi Montalcini was shy and insecure. Her father wanted her to get married and have children, but she had other plans for her life. She also had a twin sister who was an artist.

Rita Levi Montalcini was a strong proponent of education and instruction as the means to gain freedom. She was also an example of it. This segment describes a visit to women in prison, and the obstacles Montalcini had to face, as a woman and as a Jew, during the Nazi-Fascist regime.

Because of the racial laws in Italy during the period of Fascism, many Jews left the country, including Rita Levi Montalcini. In Italy she wasn't allowed to work or publish papers, but somehow, she found a way to keep going.

The formal, ceremonious aspect of the Nobel Prize awards was not what Rita Levi-Montalcini was used to, but she used that recognition to her advantage. Winning the Nobel Prize wasn't necessarily the high point in her career.
