프로이트
Story
빈 대학 의학부를 졸업한 프로이트는 파리의 정신병원에서 샤르코의 지도 아래 히스테리 환자를 관찰하고 최면술을 통한 치료 과정을 보게 되면서 인간의 내면에는 본인이 의식하지 못하는 과정, 즉 무의식이 존재한다는 것을 믿게 된다. 같은 의사이자 정신적인 아버지라 할 수 있는 브로이어와 함께 히스테리 환자를 치료하던 프로이트는 자유연상법을 통해 세실이라는 젊은 여성 환자를 완쾌시키게 된다. 또한 그녀의 아버지에 대한 사랑과 어머니에 대한 미움, 그리고 젊은 남성 환자의 어머니에 대한 집착 등을 목격하게 되면서 차츰 오이디푸스 콤플렉스와 '소아성욕론' 이론을 정립해 나가게 된다. 그러나 보수적인 학계에선 이를 받아들이지 못하고 학회에서 자신의 이론을 발표한 프로이트는 심한 모욕을 받는다.

Government officials deemed this 1946 film counterproductive to postwar efforts; it was not shown publicly until 1981.
