The atmosphere? Heavy and suffocating, yet oddly respectful of the patients' humanity. You’ll get this sense of unease as the film unpacks not just the history, but the recent shifts towards rehabilitation rather than mere containment. Pacing is contemplative, allowing for reflection on the lives of those inside. It transforms what could be just grim tales into something more; you can't help but engage with the moral questions raised.
