It does not matter who the name of the outsider living on the beach is, but his words and deeds reveal the historical confinement of twisted, mysterious madmen who come to be interpreted as nothing, a delusion of reason。

Completely aphasia in the real situation of the rational discourse system. In Madness and the History of Madness in the Age of Civilized Reason, French philosopher Michel Foucault criticized the change of fate of madness, the reason, the institutional system, and psychiatry. I made this film to know if the present could be another case.
