Synopsis
Whilst society shut down the asylums, it never truly found a place for the mentally ill. But when a young psychologist at a failing institution in Spain took a handful of patients and started a business, it grew into a multi-million dollar yoghurt brand that now employs hundreds of people with mental health problems. But after 35 years its founder, Cristobal Colon, needs to find a replacement to ensure the business has a future without him.
'Yoghurt Utopia' follows a tumultuous year in the life of the La Fageda Cooperative and its workers, both inside and outside the factory.
The documentary is a co-production between England and Spain, with TV3 and Massa D'Or.
The team will be present after the screening.
