Summer in the Forest
Documentary
Philippe, Michel, Andre and Patrick were labeled 'idiots', locked away and forgotten in asylums, until the 1960s, when the young philosopher Jean Vanier took a stand and secured their release. Together they created L'Arche, a commune at the edge of a beautiful forest near Paris.
