Freud

The World as Dream (1x6)

Show finale

Air date: Oct 19, 1984

London, 1939. Psychoanalysis flourishes in America and Freud's works are read worldwide: his international standing has far surpassed his father's simple plea that he make professor. But in the prophet's own land it is a different matter: "They burn my books. Once they would have burned me", he jokes at the Gestapo's efforts to intimidate him. More cautious friends have persuaded the old man to take refuge in England and it is there that he completes the final, revealing session of self-analysis.
