Les Heures Heureuses plot

In the Saint-Alban psychiatric institution, in the French region of Lozère, they did not use straitjackets, isolation cells and other restrictive measures. Patients were allowed to roam freely, received occupational therapy, worked on a nearby farm and even went on field trips with their attendants. During the Second World War, the institute also provided shelter for (Jewish) refugees. Using recently discovered archival material, this documentary illustrates who rolled out this unconventional policy between 1936 and the mid-1970s: Spanish physician Dr. Tosquelles, a communist oppressed by Franco, and his colleague Lucien Bonaffé, both pioneers of 'institutional psychology'.
