Popis: Interview to Hélène Castel, who at the beginnings of the 80's went to Mexico to flee the French Justice. After 24 years of living a new life under another name, she was detained by the Interpol just a few months before the prescription of the crime. That was the beginning ofa long imprisonment, isolation, transferrs from one center to another, endelss days and nights in the cells, statements in the Courthouse, and in the end the jury trial. From her own experience as a inmate, and as a Gestalt therapist, Hélène Castel decided to work with the inmates for a fair trial and a more democratic justice. The interview was conducted on the occasion of their participation in the Congress of Antipsychiatry and Counterpsychology, organized by the group L-Mental, from the Complutense University of Madrid, from 19-27 February 2014.
