Sigmund Freud:

His Offices and Home, Vienna, 1938

Produced by Gene Friedman

• "... a most unusual and fascinating film...of great interest to everyone who works in the behavioral arts and sciences." - Mental Health Materials Center
• "A remarkable photographic record." - Landers Film Reviews
• "We don't just look at Freud's famed couch, his antiquities, his family's living quarters, we are actually there at 19 Berggasse, allowed to stroll through the rooms as privileged guests, and even to meet the great man himself." - Bernice and Morton Hunt, Co-authors, Prime Time

This film admits one to a private world that few were privileged to enter. It is based on the historic pictures taken by Edmund Engelman, just before Freud fled to England to escape Nazi harassment.

Freud had created an extraordinary environment at 19 Berggasse that enriched and stimulated him as he worked. As we tour this birthplace of psychoanalysis, we see his famous couch and book-lined study just as his patients and colleagues saw it over 50 years ago. The highlight of the film is Freud's collection of antiquities and the parallel drawn between his interest in archaeology and his own explorations into the past.

Narrated by Eli Wallach, this prize-winning film gives a rare, personalized view of this important figure.
