Step inside the candlelit world of medieval faith, fear, and misunderstanding. In an age before psychology, madness was seen not as illness, but as a rupture between the soul and the divine. Through monasteries, exorcisms, confinement, and superstition, this film traces how Europe’s spiritual and social order tried—and failed—to explain the mystery of the human mind. From whispered prayers to chains in the dark, the story of medieval madness is one of compassion entangled with cruelty, and belief struggling against the unknown.
