Original Story
Knock, un ex carterista arrepentido se convierte en médico, y llega al pequeño pueblo de Saint-Maurice para aplicar un "método" destinado a hacerle rico: va a convencer a la gente de que todo sano es un enfermo que ignora que lo es. Y para ello, debe encontrar a cada uno la enfermedad real o imaginaria de la que sufre. Maestro en el arte de la seducción y de la manipulación, Knock está a punto de alcanzar sus fines.
