Images from an excursion beyond the asylum fence

The film acquaints us with the work of the senior consultant of pavilion 11 in the Bohnice asylum who endeavours to build up a complex rehabilitation and re-socialising programme for patients with chronic mental illness. One part of her treatment programme is a week's stay outside the institution for selected patients. It is this week which is captured on film.

The film was sponsored by IMTECH, spol. s r.o., IMTA a.s. Praha and TECHNOPOL AUSTRIA a.s. Bratislava.
