A stroke-afflicted filmmaker is manipulated by a notorious con man.

Dr. Loiseau organizes bizarre screenings in a tent, assisted by a carnival barker, a hunchbacked nurse, a disgraced wrestler, and an ex-convict. Together, they devise ways to attract women by leading them to believe that the doctor knows the miracle cure for cervical and breast cancer.

The film tells the story of a kind of depraved Dr. Mabuse who takes advantage of his status as a healer to kidnap women who come to consult him in the hope of being cured of various so-called female ailments.

The husbands set out in search of their wives, who have been kidnapped by Doctor Loiseau and his accomplices. The latter is hiding in a secret hideout. Still assisted by Irene the hunchback, the charlatan doctor leads a team of workers tasked with producing bottles of the precious miracle elixir 'Force Unie'.

France, 1914. The destinies of four women intersect : Marguerite, a mysterious Parisian prostitute, Caroline, propelled to the head of the family factory, Agnes, Mother Superior of a requisitioned convent and Suzanne, a feminist nurse.
