There they are treated by Professor Mathé, a staunch opponent of nuclear weapons, who proposes a never-performed bone marrow replacement as their hail Mary. Does Mathé see an opportunity to experiment on living people or does he really want to help? And how were the scientists irradiated? Guardians of the Formula is an exciting historical thriller based on a true story. It premiered at Locarno, winning the Variety Piazza Grande Award and the Green Leopard. One of the co-writers is Vuk Ršumović, the director of praised No One’s Child.
