A
Place To Heal

A Place To Heal screens as part of the Peugeot Ireland IFI French Film Festival 2026. Malou Khebizi received the Marcello Mastroianni Award for Best Young Actor or Actress at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival for her role. Seventeen-year-old Lucia returns to a psychiatric unit for adolescents that she knows all too well; reunited with her friend Eloïse, she meets young people confronting their own traumas and difficulties while an overstretched medical team struggles to care for them and the enigmatic Enzo threatens the fragile equilibrium of the ward. Cédric Kahn's compassionate ensemble drama explores mental health and the complexities of adolescence. Tickets can be booked through the Irish Film Institute.
