THE ORDINARY MADNESS OF A DAUGHTER OF HAM
"Fifty Years in Blackness: Between Liberation and Madness"
Directed by Jean Rouch
In Jean Rouch's cinematic reinterpretation of Julius-Amédée Laou's theatrical work, a freshly appointed nurse steps into the chaotic world of a psychiatric ward. Tasked with nurturing the minds within, she forms a profound connection with a patient from Martinique who has been confined within the institution's walls for half a century.
