"Crazy Wise" is the title of a beautiful documentary by Phil Borges. This documentary confronts two facets in the way of treating mental illnesses. A pharmaceutical vision versus one or more alternative visions. The documentary explores a human vision where we learn through human exchanges, through positive experiences, how to transform psychological illnesses into strengths. In the manner of Jeannot, Quetzilla wanted to put herself in Jeannot's shoes by engraving in the same way, a text on a floor, as if to put herself in the place of a person affected by mental illness. This text by the poet James Baldwin evokes here his vision on the behavior of the human being. Through his observations, the poet denounces a truth deliberately hidden by society; a truth that only poets know and dare to reveal through their writings.
