A Dangerous Method
By the Freudian way, Carl Jung who is in a psychiatric hospital in Zurich heals a woman called Sabina Spielrein who suffered of hysteria caused while she was child by her father. Jung wanted Sabina to work with him as she is smart and energetic. He believes she would be useful for him. Jung entered a relationship with Sabina. Freud meets Jung and intends to analyze this relationship.
