GERMANY, 1926. Director: G.W. Pabst
A post-screening discussion with Dr. Endre Koritar
A remarkable Expressionist feature in which a professor (Werner Krauss) is driven into a state of terror by strange intense nightmares accompanied by compulsive thoughts of murdering his wife. Based on an actual patient treated (and cured) by Sigmund Freud, and made with the collaboration of Freud’s colleagues Karl Abraham and Hanns Sachs, “Secrets of a Soul” is the first time in film that psychoanalysis was represented as a treatment for mental illness.
