‘Like An Open Sky’ – a documentary about the ‘Courtil’ treatment centre for children

June 2, 2014 / Courtil, Culture, mental health, psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, talking treatment / art & culture, Bristol, mental health, psychoanalysis, psychosis, psychotherapy, schitzophrenia, talking treatment

It’s very good to hear that Mariana Otero’s acclaimed film about Le Courtil, the Lacanian-oriented treatment centre on the French-Belgium border for children, adolescents and adults with mental health problems, will be released with subtitles in the UK in October. We’ll try to see about getting a showing in Bristol somehow…

“Alysson considers her body with mistrust. Evanne spins and twists until he collapses. Amina can’t manage to make words come out of her mouth. At the border between France and Belgium there exists a special place which takes care of psychologically and socially challenged children. Day after day, the adults working there try to understand the enigma that each of these children represent and invent, case by case, without ever imposing anything, solutions that will help them live peaceful lives.”
