About This Movie
La Devinière offers a raw glimpse into the lives of 19 children who society has largely abandoned. The documentary’s atmosphere is heavy, almost haunting, as it dives deep into the realm of institutional psychotherapy. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to fully absorb the weight of their circumstances. Themes of exclusion and the struggle for acceptance resonate throughout the film. What really stands out are the unfiltered performances of the children, who, despite their labels, convey a deep yearning for connection and understanding. The absence of a conventional narrative creates a distinctive experience, immersing you in the stark reality of their lives and the innovative, though often controversial, approaches taken by the staff at La Devinière.
