During the Second World War, 45,000 psychiatric patients perished in French hospitals. Only one facility survived intact: an asylum in Saint-Alban.

Only one place escapes this hecatomb, the asylum of a village isolated from the center of France – Saint-Alban-sur-Limagnole. What made this place so different? Few hours of amateur films accidentally discovered, arising from the past, come to testify thousand and one daily inventions of a place of resistance.
