Hi Nana,
probably you don't know the book "Hospital of the Transfiguration" (S.Lem). In 1978 arose a screenplay and movie (based on the novel of the same title). The book is telling about the young doctor which after studies is finding a job at the mental hospital. The action is happening during the II world war, of Nazi occupation. Your photograph roused these associations in me. I am finding the similar ambience on it.
Strange, disquieting scene and the great presentation.
take care, greetings from Krakow, iza
