It is a film directed by Lorraine Lévy, released in 2017.

His French comedy tells the story of a doctor named Knock, played by Omar Sy, who arrives in a small village with the intention of making all the inhabitants feel sick in order to cure them and gain their trust and money.

The film is full of funny moments and hilarious situations as Knock tries to convince people that they need his medical help.

As the story progresses, intrigue, secrets and surprises unfold, keeping the viewer entertained and with a smile on their face.

This is a film that stands out for its intelligent humour and the charismatic performance of Omar Sy, who manages to bring to life the charismatic and manipulative Doctor Knock.

In addition, the overall cast gives outstanding performances and the story invites us to reflect on the importance of health and happiness in our lives.

The cast also includes Sy:

Alex Lutz as Doctor Parpalaid: The town doctor, who is suspicious of Knock's intentions.

Ana Girardot as Adèle: A young woman who becomes Knock's assistant and falls in love with him.

Sabine Azéma as Madame Rémy: A hypochondriac and wealthy woman who becomes Knock's patient.

Pascal Elbé as Doctor Louis Jolly: A sceptical doctor who doubts Knock's methods.

Audrey Dana as The Countess: A wealthy and eccentric woman who seeks Knock's services.

Christian Hecq as Doctor Parpaillon: Knock's medical colleague.

Michel Vuillermoz as Monsieur Rémy: Husband of Madame Rémy and Knock's patient.

Although it received good reviews, it did not do well at the box office as it cost 14 million to produce and grossed less than 6 million.

    It's a shame when films don't make the minimum profit, especially when they are seen to be well made. Maybe the humor used was not fully understood, or the marketing strategies were not the best.
