A selection of short interviews filmed in Freud's and also Anna Freud's consulting rooms (reconstructed in London at their house which became the Freud Museum). Jan Abram, Michael Brearley, Catalina Bronstein, Josh Cohn, Leon Kleimberg, Gregorio Kohon and Rosine Perelberg depict how London became the centre of European Psychoanalysis, with the arrival of Freud fleeing Nazi Germany. The interviews depict how immigration from Continental Europe created an openness that encouraged new ideas and discussion about what was and what was not psychoanalysis. Also we see how the British Society was able, despite differences between the different factions, to contain prominent figures such as Anna Freud, Klein, Winnicott and Bion and became an important hub for the progression of new thinking and new practices in psychoanalysis.
