Leila et Damien s’aiment profondément. Malgré sa bipolarité, il tente de poursuivre sa vie avec elle sachant qu’il ne pourra peut-être jamais lui offrir ce qu’elle désire.

Director Joachim Lafosse does not pull any punches in this eviscerating portrait of the complex double bind between an artist and his mania. Not just a courageous (and rarely seen) investigation of bipolar disorder, The Restless reveals what it really means to live in the thrall of your moods.
