Краткое содержание

Фильм рассказывает истории нескольких пациентов, которые испробовали на себе медицинские устройства как бы с переднего края технологий: механический контрацептив, протез тазобедренного сустава, робота-хирурга. Но обещанной врачами и рекламой магии не случилось: наоборот, здоровье людей было разрушено, для некоторых - навсегда.
