Argumento
Augustine, a nineteen-year-old kitchen maid, suffers from seizures and finds herself under the care of pioneering French neurologist Dr. Jean-Martin Charcot in Belle Époque France. Charcot becomes fascinated by Augustine's condition and her apparent hysteria, making her his star patient for experiments in hypnosis. As time passes, their professional relationship evolves into a complex dynamic as Charcot's desire towards Augustine grows.
Resumen
Augustine is a historical drama set in 19th century France, focusing on the real-life relationship between Dr. Jean-Martin Charcot and his patient Augustine, a young kitchen maid suffering from epilepsy.
