Summary
"Guilty except for insanity follow patients who enter the Oregon State Hospital through the insanity plea and paints a portrait of a maddening world. Site of the filming of 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,' the hospital has been the center of intense public controversy, including charges of civil rights abuse of patients. This documentary tells a different side of the story. It offers a unique glimpse into the lives of patients and staff caught in an insane system -- one that reflects larger national trends toward incarceration of individuals suffering mental health crises"--Container.
