Synopsis
In the Saint-Alban psychiatric clinic in the Lozère region of France, they didn't use straightjackets, solitary confinement or other forms of coercion. Patients moved around freely, received ergonomic therapy, worked at a nearby farm and even went on trips with their supervisors. During World War II, the institute also housed refugees, including Jews.
