How does one become a doctor? These students are between 17 and 30 years old and are our future doctors. Every day, they climb a step further towards the objective they have set for themselves, but the journey is long and full of roadblocks. Cramming, learning medical reasoning and the requirements of scientific research, confrontation with suffering and death, clashes with managers: no experience is spared, until the moment when they are finally ready to look after us, when they take the Hippocratic oath.
