Storia
Le bal des folles follows the story of Eugenie, a young girl living at the end of the 19th century with an extraordinary gift: she can hear and see the dead. When her family discovers her secret, they take her to the neurological clinic at La Pitié Salpêtrière, run by the eminent Professor Charcot. There, Eugenie becomes trapped with no hope of escape.
Riassunto
Le bal des folles is a drama-thriller directed by Mélanie Laurent and released in 2021. The film centers around Eugenie, a young woman with the unique ability to perceive deceased individuals. When her family learns about her gift, they send her to a clinic under the care of Professor Charcot at La Pitié Salpêtrière. This historical setting is significant as it allows the film to explore themes of psychiatry and mental health treatment in late 19th-century France.
