In the clinic, he encounters cruel methods of patient management, especially with the manipulative head physician Ratched. Patients live in close control and discipline, undergoing medical treatments and psychotherapy.The main character is Mac, who, with his anti-authoritarian and disobedient actions, undermines Ratched's authority and introduces a spirit of freedom and rebellion among other patients. It organizes various events and games to protest the clinic's authoritarianism.
