Death instinct, sex, dreams, desire, alienating strangeness… Films have never stopped feeding on the unconscious, the basis of psychoanalytic theory. Freud was very wary of the cinema but one of his collaborators, Karl Abraham, dared to cast psychoanalysis into a screenplay, G. W. Pabst's 1925 film, Geheimnisse einer Seele (Mysteries of a Soul). This was the first encounter between two worlds that would continue to intermingle. Using film excerpts and interviews with directors (Lang, Fellini, Cronenberg, Lynch), this film explores the relations between cinema and psychoanalysis, compares their correspondences and illuminates their interactions.
