Story Synopsis

Robin Williams stars as Patch Adams in this based-on-a-true-story comedy-inspiration-drama. Patch Adams is a doctor who believes that healing is encouraged through laughter and good spirits. He is surprised to discover that many of his colleagues do not agree with, or condone, his laughter-as-medicine approach. But even at the risk of his career, Patch pulls out all the stops to dispense a daily dose of mirth to those in his care.
