Thomas l'imposteur Histoire

In the midst of a nation torn apart by war, a bustling house of health on the Left Bank becomes a fragile sanctuary for civilians and soldiers alike. The sudden evacuation of the government leaves the city in disarray, and a young aristocratic woman—daughter of the Princess of Bormes—takes charge of the makeshift Red‑Cross ward, insisting on duty despite her privileged background. Meanwhile, the enigmatic Dr. Verne, a self‑professed spiritualist, slips between the roles of healer and hypnotist, quietly exerting an unsettling influence over the staff and patients under his roof.

Against this backdrop of chaos, the Princess’s widow, a sharp‑tongued Polish exile, navigates the paradox of caring for her ailing daughter while grappling with her disdain for the very people she shelters. Their intertwined motives—civic obligation, personal survival, and hidden ambitions—set the stage for a tense, character‑driven drama where every whispered command and fleeting glimpse of compassion may alter the fragile balance of a city on the brink.
