Benicio Del Toro and Mathieu Amalric star in the new film from the director of A Christmas Tale and Kings & Queen.

His case is referred to French-American anthropologist and psychoanalyst Georges Devereau (Amalric), a real-life pioneer in ethno-psychiatry. Devereau puts his patient on the couch and talks and walks him through his life's traumas. A 2013 New York Film Festival selection. "Marvelous…The best and most moving case for psychoanalysis ever dramatized on screen.” –Film Comment.
