Synopsis by Daniel Gelb
Biopic of unorthodox Brazilian psychiatrist Nise da Silveira (Gloria Pires), who rejected the draconian mental-health treatments of the 1950s and instead encouraged those in her care to express themselves through painting. Her patients' work went on to garner massive acclaim within the art world. Directed by Roberto Berliner.
