Patch Adams

A história

Em 1969, após tentar suicidar-se, Hunter Adams dá entrada voluntariamente num sanatório psiquiátrico, onde se cura de uma depressão e descobre a sua verdadeira vocação: a medicina. Na faculdade, todavia, ele usa métodos pouco convencionais onde associa à terapêutica usual doses contagiantes de bom humor e uma grande proximidade com os doentes. Apesar de ter boas notas e dos resultados evidentes no ânimo e saúde dos doentes, o reitor da faculdade recusa-se a deixá-lo graduar-se, e tenta mesmo assim expulsá-lo da faculdade. Será que rir pode ser um remédio médico?
