 71 Wn.2d 414, LEE ADAMS et al., Respondents, v. STATE OF WASHINGTON, Appellant
Adams had voluntarily requested admission to the hospital with knowledge of the method of treatment to be followed; and alleged lack of jurisdiction of the court for the reason that the standard of care at the hospital was a discretionary state function and, as such, was absolutely privileged.
Adams had never before, while in Western State Hospital, attempted to "escape," nor were her acts earlier that morning of such a nature as to indicate a present suicidal intent which would require the sacrifice of the rehabilitative benefits from the milieu therapy treatment.
Adams secretly harbored a suicidal intent, even though her attending physician had given orders that she be kept from leaving the ward for the purpose of protecting her against the foreseen danger of self-injury, and those orders were not followed.

 Yossi Milo Gallery - Past Exhibition - Shelby Lee Adams
Adams finds that his subjects are less likely to live off the land and more likely to embrace the media culture, as reflected in the fancier dress that his subjects choose, the mobile homes that appear with increasing frequency, or the satellite dishes that dot the landscape.
Adams is not a documentary photographer, and he does not attempt to be objective when he photographs his subjects — all of whom are friends and some of whom are relatives — year after year.
Adams' work has been published widely, his third and most recent book, Appalachian Lives, was released in June of 2003 and includes many works which are being exhibited for the first time in this exhibition.

 TAKE ONE: The True Meaning of Pictures: Shelby Lee Adams' Appalachia. - movie review
Baichwal's methods are traditional, presenting us with interviews and archival footage as she gathers together differing perspectives about Adams and his work, all the while leading us further into the most isolated of "hollows" hidden in behind the misty mountains of Kentucky.
Adams makes a passionate case for the style and content of his work on the foundation that his photographs are his way of expressing himself artistically.
Baichwal allows Adams to represent himself as a kind of crusader for Appalachia, but through her subtle use of structure, we realize that the nature of this salvation is unclear.

Shelby Lee Adams is a photographer from Kentucky, and his principal subjects are the poor people of rural Appalachia; this documentary considers the artist, his models, and the reception of his work.
But there's an obvious and uncomfortable cultural divide: Adams photographs some of the poorest Americans, and seeing their pictures hanging in hoity toity galleries as fl-clad urbanites sip Chardonnay is a little nauseous.
Adams seems to have a genuine affection for his subjects, but he's clearly not a documentarian.
