For two years, the adult psychiatry day hospital in Saint-Jean-de-Luz has offered a music workshop for its patients, an initiative now highlighted by a documentary.

This workshop brings together musician patients with a common goal: to play pop-rock songs together. As part of their final examination, students from the Lycée Cassin's Audiovisual BTS program have created an 18-minute documentary about this initiative.
Filmed largely in the studios of L'Atabal and within the Audiovisual BTS department, the film features testimonials from patients and caregivers. Through their stories and shared musical moments, the students aim to foster a better understanding of the value and benefits of a therapeutic workshop and the importance of mental health care.
