The Danish actor Ulrich Thomsen’s international career has been more far-reaching than most people are aware of. In this award-winning Hungarian film, he plays the lead role as the morphine-addicted psychiatrist Dr. Brenner. In 1913, he comes to a remote mental institution for women, where the patients are still being subjected to spectacular, medieval treatment methods. In contrast to the older doctors, Brenner is tracking down the human aspect in the midst of insanity, and he is especially taken by Gizella. She is beautiful, but a lost soul, who, with her schizophrenic and manic writings, manages to put words to what Brenner himself is trying to express. But his own demons overpower him time and time again, driving him further down the path of opium addiction and promiscuity. Janos Szasz’s deeply fascinating and beautiful film is as appealing as it is eerie - like a poem by Edgar Allan Poe.
The Director János Szász and Ulrich Thomsen will introduce the film. Jameson will offer a free drink before the screening.
