Mad takes her fate into her own hands. That takes courage. And a few thousand euros.
For Mad, her science club is more than just a chemistry club. It’s a safe space for anyone struggling with mental health issues. When the national chemistry competition is announced, Mad is fired up. She’s determined to win, because the winning team will take home €10,000! And Mad needs the money more than ever. But her anxieties get in her way, and friendships are threatened. Until she realizes that true greatness isn’t found in any experiment, no matter how complex—it’s the courage to face the truth and stand up for oneself.
