What is Mad to Be Normal about? Toggle content

Mad to Be Normal is a powerful and thought-provoking drama that delves into the revolutionary methods of renegade Scottish psychiatrist R.D. Laing. In the 1960s, Laing caused controversy within his profession by experimenting with LSD and a form of self-healing known as metanoia on his patients at Kingsley Hall in East London. His unique approach created a community for his patients to inhabit, challenging traditional views of mental health and sparking outrage and debate. With an all-star cast, including David Tennant, Elisabeth Moss, and Gabriel Byrne, this film offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of one of Scotland's greatest minds.
