The Adamant is a unique day care centre: it is a floating structure on the Seine in the heart of Paris, half Mississippi riverboat, half art studio. It welcomes adults suffering from mental illness, offering them counselling and art therapy.
The team running the facility are forward-thinking and progressive, while acknowledging the role of conventional treatment in making their approach possible. This compassionate, warm and sympathetic documentary gives us privileged access to The Adamant and its endlessly fascinating cast of staff and patients.
