On the eve of the Second World War and the end of his life, Sigmund Freud invites iconic author C.S. Lewis for a debate over the existence of God. Innovatively, the film explores Freud’s unique relationship with his lesbian daughter Anna, and Lewis’ unconventional romance with his best friend’s mother. The thought-provoking film interweaves past, present and fantasy, bursting from the confines of Freud’s study on a dynamic journey.

Sir Anthony Hopkins is on towering form in this intellectually stirring drama, imagining a seismic meeting of two great minds, as the debating duo unravel Lewis’ post-war trauma and Freud’s complicated interpersonal relationships. Previously adapted for the stage, Matthew Brown’s compelling film – co-written by playwright Mark St. Germain – is an unmissable cinematic session which mines deep into life’s big questions.
