The film is set in 11th century Persia, where a British man disguises his Catholic identity to study medicine at a medical school in Isfahan that only admits Jewish students. His mentor is Avicenna, a renowned Jewish scientist, philosopher, and physician throughout history. Avicenna authored over 200 works, the most famous being "The Book of Healing", which was considered a high-level encyclopedia at the time; another major work is "The Canon of Medicine", which was deemed a classic in Western countries until the 17th century and still holds reference value today. "The Physician" combines epic and fiction, showcasing the fearless spirit of a group of people seeking true knowledge in an age dominated by ignorance and superstition.
