簡介：Bedlam is the first major documentary to explore the crisis in care of severely mentally-ill citizens. Set in Los Angeles, the film tracks wrenching individual stories of mentally-ill patients caught on an endless merry-go-round of ineffective care, exposing the anatomy of a broken healthcare mill. What was once a system built around long-term asylum care has essentially become a crude horror show for thousands who are detained, medicated, and tossed onto the streets with no means of recovery. There, petty crime and drug addiction land many in prison, where they are detained and medicated again, creating a tragic loop. As one psychiatrist points out, this government-sanctioned loop is the actual definition of insanity. Add to that the fact that few psychiatrists are even willing to treat those most severely afflicted, and you’ve got an all-out crisis that’s also a major source of homelessness and incarceration. With a mixture of pained intimacy and sweeping historical context, Bedlam shows how deep-seated shame, stigma, and decades-long political negligence have led to the single largest social catastrophe of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. 《精神病醫(yī)院》是首部探討嚴(yán)重精神病患長右護(hù)危機(jī)的大型紀(jì)錄片。這部電影洛杉磯為背景，講述了精神病者被無休止的無效護(hù)理的旋轉(zhuǎn)馬纏住的痛苦故事，揭露了一破碎的醫(yī)療工廠的解剖結(jié)構(gòu)。 曾經(jīng)建立在長期庇護(hù)護(hù)理墨家礎(chǔ)的系統(tǒng)，對于被拘留、服藥、扔到街上無法康復(fù)的數(shù)千人來，已經(jīng)基本上變成了一個粗暴恐怖秀。在那里，輕微犯罪和毒成癮使許多人落入監(jiān)獄，在里他們再次被關(guān)押和服藥赤鷩造了一個悲慘的循環(huán)。正如一位神病學(xué)家指出的，這個政府認(rèn)的循環(huán)是精神錯亂的真正定義除此之外，幾乎沒有精神病醫(yī)愿意治療那些受折磨最嚴(yán)重的，而且你有一場全面的危螽槦，也是無家可歸和監(jiān)禁的主要原?
