An extraordinary conversation about madness and everyday life in a mental hospital, between psychiatrist Jean Oury and psychoanalyst and writer Marie Depussé.

This one-of-a-kind conversation juxtaposes theory and poetic, sometimes even funny scenes of daily life in a mental hospital, in which the authors offer thoughts on the concept of madness.
