Critic Reviews

The film's great gift, though, is Romaner. Unbelievably, this is the first film for the Bavarian stage actress. She fully inhabits the role of this complex personality whose passion for love and art collides with her role of wife and mother.

Eccentric and expressionistic reverie on love, loss, and the birth of modern marriage.

The scenes with Karl Markovics, as Freud, are the lingering appeal of this artfully composed film.
