When a passive psychiatrist’s patient discovers his secret ability to sense and absorb people’s mental distress, she pressures him to challenge his exploitative boss in order to pursue his dream of starting a nonprofit practice.

The movie is about the person doing the actions. Therefore this is really about the patient as it is told through her eyes. What is the goals and what would be standing in the way of success.?

I'm a little confused as to who the hero is. :)

Also agreed with Craig about the word "...passive..." for all intent and purposes you have literally described the MC as passive...
