The film begins in the corridor of a psychiatric institution in the Senegal that is illuminated by dazzling white light. A young man is having his head shaved. The director Joris Lachaise integrates us into his space; we cannot escape the distress and uncertainty and there are no clear classifications. Doctors trained in scientific medicine and traditional healers enter into a dialogue. Here symptoms of illnesses are objectively understood to be culturally specific and are dealt with accordingly. Psychopharmaceuticals come up against goat's blood and isolation cells meet Christian fundamentalists. The film, CE QU'IL RESTE DE LA FOLIE positively explodes with its propensity for discourse, takes an unusual formal approach and captivates with its visual strength. An intellectual debate is made tangible. 'Remnants of madness' is an outstandingly crafted piece of art that stunned and convinced us from its very first images.
