Le malade imaginaire also translated as The Hypochondriac or the The Imaginary Invalid in English.

Argan is obsessed with his health: he constantly believes he is ill and spends his money on increasingly absurd and ineffective treatments. He also wants to marry his daughter, Angélique, to a young “medical practitioner,” Thomas Diafoirus, so that he can have a son-in-law who will be useful to him. But Angélique is in love with Cléante, who loves her in return. Supported by Toinette, a strong-willed and sharp-tongued servant, Angélique stands up to her father...
