Synopsis
À hauteur d'homme est inspiré de la vie du docteur Louis Seutin, médecin et chirurgien belge du XIX siècle qui s'initia à son art au milieu des combats des guerres du Premier Empire français. Rentré en Belgique, il se consacra au progrès de la médecine, notamment dans la réorganisation des hôpitaux et dans les domaines de la lutte contre la fièvre puerpérale, du développement de la chirurgie osseuse et de la guérison des fractures. Sa méthode amovo-inamovible de réduction des fractures échappe aux défauts des méthodes qui l'ont précédée en conjuguant les avantages des méthodes légères et des méthodes lourdes sans leurs inconvénients.Actors

In Strasbourg in 1800, fervent Bonapartist and obsessive duellist Lieutenant Gabriel Feraud (Harvey Keitel) of the French 7th Hussars, nearly kills the nephew of the city's mayor in a sword duel. Under pressure from the mayor, Brigadier-General Treillard (Robert Stephens) sends a member of his staff, Lieutenant Armand d'Hubert (Keith Carradine) of the 3rd Hussars, to put Feraud under house arrest. As the arrest takes place in the house of Madame de Lionne (Jenny Runacre), a prominent local lady, Feraud takes it as a personal insult from d'Hubert. Matters are made worse when Feraud asks d'Hubert if he would "let them spit on Napoleon" and d'Hubert doesn't immediately reply. Upon reaching his quarters, Feraud challenges d'Hubert to a duel. The duel is inconclusive; d'Hubert slashes Feraud's forearm but is unable to finish him off, because he is attacked by Feraud's housemaid. As a result of his part in the duel, d'Hubert is dismissed from the General's staff and returned to active duty with his unit.
