The action takes place during one of the sessions of a final-year programme in group therapy. The head lecturer for the programme is an American psychiatrist-psychotherapist and the group is made up of psychiatrists, special education teachers and pedagogues. Their motives for attending this programme are twofold: because of their own professional ambition and because of the American professor’s worldwide reputation. The plot is driven by rather turbulent relationships between the characters. At the centre of the story is a 40-year old psychiatrist, Simona K., who is much more successful in her professional life than in her private life. This is not, however, a film about group psychotherapy. That is simply a means for exploring the film’s real themes.
