Synopsis
An unorthodox biography of the neurologist Egas Moniz, which mixes the documentary form with fictional reconstruction (this being interpreted by the patients at a psychiatric institution). The Portuguese doctor's investigation into mental disturbances, which would lead him to win the Nobel prize for medicine, is the pretext for a radical interrogation of Science's classifications and methods used to isolate the reason of madness.
