Spoilers ahead
In a bustling dinner service, a kitchen maid named Augustine suddenly experiences numbness in her hands and then a violent fit that leaves her partially paralyzed, including losing feeling on one side of her body and even a moment where a seizure seems to steal her sight. Her condition lands her in a hospital where the famed French neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot becomes determined to understand what ails her. He witnesses seizures firsthand and confirms that Augustine’s body has matured, yet she shows no sensation where most people would expect it, a discrepancy that both unsettles and fascinates the medical staff watching closely.
