The Healer is a 2016 Spanish-Canadian-American comedy-drama film written and directed by Paco Arango and starring Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Camilla Luddington, Kaitlyn Bernard, Jorge Garcia and Jonathan Pryce.

[3] Mechanical engineer Alec Bailey, struggling after his parents' and twin brother Charlie's deaths, sleeps around, gambles, has a failing television repair business called The Healer, and is drowning in debt.

Suddenly, Alec's estranged uncle, Raymond Heacock, offers to pay his £88,000 debt in exchange for him moving to Nova Scotia, Canada, for a whole year.

His first days in town do not go well: meeting Father Malloy, he tells him he is Buddhist to avoid going to church; Officer Tom gives him a citation, making it clear he dislikes his uncle; and the newspaper ad, headed "The Healer", says he can fix anything.

The strangest incident came when Father Malloy had a heart attack and died in front of Alec, but minutes later came back to life.

During the closing credits, scenes filmed at various of the global community of camps operated by the SeriousFun Children's Network are shown, with a dedication to founder Paul Newman.

The film has a 17% rating on Rotten Tomatoes,[4] summarized by Michael Rechtshaffen of the Los Angeles Times as "although the cause may be noble, the end effect is decidedly less rewarding.
