Every Little Thing is an incredible documentary about one of the world’s most highly regarded psychiatric institutions where patients and staff live and work together.

Within the tranquil woods of Loire Valley we are introduced to La Borde psychiatric clinic, an asylum in the truest sense of the word, as they prepare for the annual summer play.

"An intimate, profoundly sympathetic and admirably honest look at life in an institution. Philibert is a master film-maker and his work should not be missed by anyone who takes contemporary cinema at all seriously"
