Description Working in a mental institution, Lewis, a young director, takes on the task of mounting a production of Mozart's "Cosi Fan Tutte", with the patients who live there - to be perfomred in a burnt-out theatre while protests against war are being staged outside.
As his life is touched by these extraordinary people and the operatic production lurches forward, we learn, along with Lewis, that when chasing your dreams it helps to be a little crazy.
