Voulant assurer le triomphe de la médecine qu'il fait passer avant l'intérêt des malades, et souhaitant devenir le maître des habitants du village et de ses environs, le docteur Knock arrive à Saint-Maurice pour succéder au docteur Parpalaid, brave honnête homme mais dont la clientèle est rare. L'état de santé du pays est excellent. Se rendant compte qu'il a été dupé par son prédécesseur, mais loin de se décourager, Knock fait comprendre à chaque patient qui se presse à ses consultations que tout bien portant est un malade qui s'ignore. Le résultat ne se fait pas attendre. Tout le village se retrouve au lit ; l'hôtel est transformé en clinique et même Parpalaid revenu temporairement, doit s'aliter, inquiet à son tour pour sa santé, à la suite du « diagnostic » du docteur Knock, ce dernier ayant réussi à le persuader qu'il était en mauvaise santé.

The film depicts the relatively primitive medical practices of the time and the suppositions that physicians made in their efforts to understand the human body. After King George III begins to go mad, his doctors attempt cures such as blistering and purges, led on particularly by the Prince of Wales' personal physician, Dr. Warren. Meanwhile, another of the King's physicians, Dr. Pepys, analyses the King's stool and urine believing that body wastes may contain some clue to the Royal malady; of course, none of these attempts to cure the King actually works. Finally, Lady Pembroke, attendant to the Queen, recommends Dr. Willis, an ex-minister who attempts to cure the insane through behaviour modification, and who begins his restoration of the King's mental state by enforcing a strict regime of strapping the King into a waistcoat and restraining him whenever he misbehaves.

The film takes place mostly in a mental institution filled with an eclectic menagerie of patients. Young-goon, a young woman working in a factory constructing radios and who believes herself to be a cyborg, is institutionalized after cutting her wrist and connecting it with a power cord to a wall outlet in an attempt to "recharge" herself, an act that is interpreted as a suicide attempt. Her delusion is characterized by refusing to eat (she instead licks batteries and attempts to administer electric shocks to herself), conversing almost solely with machines and electrical appliances and obsessively listening to her tube radio at night for instruction on how to become a better cyborg. Her apathetic mother is interviewed by the institute's head doctor, to determine the roots of Young-goon's psychosis; despite claiming ignorance of her daughter's delusion (it is later learnt she knew but was too busy to make her seek help), she reveals that Young-goon's mentally ill grandmother had previously been institutionalized for delusions of being a mouse, a trauma that sparks Young-goon's own lapses from reality. As a result, she frequently fantasizes of finding her grandmother and seeking revenge on the "men in white" who took her away.
