SA RAFALE [2025, FRA/GER, 40’] Maxime Garault

In this medium-length documentary, Maxime, the director, explores the journey of his friend Guillaume, a schizophrenic arist, as well as his own experiences within a psychiatric hospital. Following his hospitalization, a project emerges: to paint portraits of the patients he met in the hospital, based solely on Maxime’s narratives, as a result, revealing the human faces behind the diagnoses. This project becomes a therapeutic journey, offering a window into the complexity of the human mind and the importance of human connection.
