In south-eastern Spain stands a wall that separates two worlds: a healthy world and a sick world, deemed contagious. The Fontilles sanatorium was once a sanctuary for people suffering from leprosy. Callisto Mc Nulty travels along this border to meet witnesses from the past and present, who become the storytellers of a world that is disappearing.

Presented at Visions du Réel 2025

Preceded by the short film: THE HOUSE IS BLACK by Forough Farrokhzad (Iran – 1962 – 21 mins): Forough Farrokhzad films, with dignity and without the slightest sentimentality, the daily lives of those confined to the Baba Baghi leper colony near Tabriz. This film marks a profound break in the history of Iranian cinema.
