Directed by David Cronenberg and starring Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley and Viggo Mortensen, the film explores the birth of psychoanalysis by focussing on the relationship between Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. After the film screening there will be discussion, debate and a wine reception. The talks will cover the representation of the female characters, popular and professional attitudes towards psychoanalysis in Edwardian society, the depiction of psychiatrists in film, Freud’s Welsh connection, and one hundred years of psychoanalysis and Buddhism. This event will be sponsored by the Welsh Psychiatric Society (WPS).
