Dr. Knock

Director Dominik Graf tells the story of a diabolical and brilliant doctor from Karlsruhe who takes over a rural practice in the Bavarian countryside. To achieve his goal of establishing a lucrative sanatorium, he must overcome empty waiting rooms, empty cash registers, and gullible citizens. Thus, Dr. Knock ruthlessly schemes with every means at his disposal. He convinces the villagers of their illnesses, manipulates people, and eliminates skeptics and opponents. Dr. Knock succeeds in acquiring power, prestige, and the desired property, for which he is even willing to sacrifice his own life. The astonishing part is that Dr. Knock sometimes brings happiness and recognition to the people in the community. But what is the significance of the blue letters without a return address that keep fluttering into the practice? Does Dr. Knock have a past that catches up with him even in the world he has created?.
