Product Description:
Set in a Hungarian mental institution in 1900, this dark and intense drama follows a dangerous affair between Jozsef Brenner (Ulrich Thomsen), a morphine-addicted physician, and Gizella Klein (Kirsti Stubo), his profoundly disturbed patient. Brenner, who struggles with writer's block, is drawn to his deranged patient because she has the opposite problem: she cannot stop writing for a moment. While at first his interest is professional, it soon turns into a personal obsession that cannot easily be exorcised.
Description by Koch Entertainment Distribution:
Internationally acclaimed actor Ulrich Thomsen stars as Dr. Jozef Brenner, a morphine-addicted medic plagued with writer's block in this intense and harrowing film by award-winning director János Szász. After the conflicted doctor meets the deeply disturbed patient Gizella (Kirsti Stubø), the two begin a dangerous codependent affair, which drives them both over the edge.
