Ever since winning immortality in a bet against the Devil (which of course was a trick and turned out to be more of a curse than a blessing), Doctor Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) is touring the world with his little theatre troupe. Unfortunately, the style of the performance has not aged very well and it is hard for them to attract an audience. Their fortunes seem to pick up when they find Tony (Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Jude Law, Colin Farell), hanging from a bridge with a rope around his neck.
