About
Hidden behind the walls of an old political prison on the Greek island of Leros was the world's most notorious and brutal asylum for the insane. Beaten and tortured, they became wild as animals, unknown to the world until the walls were broken down in 1990 by Italian psychiatrists. Now back in the sane world, this follows their rehabilitated lives. A shocking testament to a regime that defies belief.
