This pseudo-biographical movie depicts five years - beginning in 1885 - in the life of the legendary Viennese psychologist Sigmund Freud. Disillusioned with the way his colleagues refuse to treat patients in a mental asylum, following a trip to Paris to visit Dr Charcot he sees how hysterical patients are treated by means of hypnosis. Experimenting with these new techniques, Freud concentrates on Cecily Koertner, a young woman suffering a nervous and physical breakdown upon the death of her father.
