Overview

The Adamant is a unique day-care centre. A floating structure located on the Seine in the heart of Paris, it welcomes adults suffering from mental disorders, offering the kind of care that grounds them in time and space and helps them to recover or keep up their spirits. The team running it tries to resist the deterioration and dehumanisation of psychiatry as best as they can.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A tender, observational portrait of a remarkable floating refuge where vulnerable adults find dignity and grounding through daily care and human connection. The film moves gently through rituals of care and recovery, never looking away from either the struggles or the small victories.
