David Cronenberg (Crash) examines the early day of psychoanalysis in this stylish and provocative period piece.

In early-20th-century Switzerland, Carl Jung (Fassbender), disciple of father of psychotherapy Sigmund Freud (Mortensen), begins to treat a seriously disturbed young woman (Knightley).

But, as their relationship becomes dangerously intimate, Jung begins to wonder whether Freud’s theories aren’t fatally flawed.

Dir. David Cronenberg, UK/Germany/Canada/Switzerland, 2011, 99 mins
