A blind Italian captain, accompanied by his aide Ciccio, who has been assigned to him by the army, is on his way from Turin to Naples to meet with an old comrade who was also disfigured in the same military incident. Unknown to his aide, the Captain means to fulfill a suicide pact there. While they journey, the Captain asks Ciccio to help him spot beautiful women. Unsatisfied with the boy's descriptions, he uses his nose instead, claiming that he can smell a beautiful woman. During their journey, he carries with him a picture of his beloved Sara, whom he could not bear to have see him disfigured and helpless. The suicide pact is eventually thwarted once Sara enters the picture, and the boy Ciccio does some much-needed growing up.

En février 2009, confrontés à des cas de valvulopathie et d'hypertension artérielle pulmonaire, des médecins du CHU de Brest soupçonnent un lien avec la prise d'un médicament, le Mediator, commercialisé par les laboratoires Servier. La pneumologue Irène Frachon, aidée d'un chercheur, le professeur Le Bihan, s'improvise lanceuse d'alerte. Ces provinciaux candides ne cherchent qu'à sauver des vies. Mais, à Paris, ils découvrent un univers bien peu préoccupé d'intérêt général. L'argent règne en maître et « des laboratoires pharmaceutiques arrivent à prendre le contrôle des autorités de santé » : universitaires stipendiés, arrogants et brutaux, commissions d'experts dévoyées par les conflits d'intérêts… Le Bihan, en tant que chercheur, est vite neutralisé. On l'accable de mépris, on lui coupe les crédits et il n'a plus qu'à s'exiler au Canada.
