Saving Freud

"Saving Freud" tells the dramatic true story of Sigmund Freud's last-minute escape from Austria to London in 1938, following the German annexation. Despite being elderly and seriously ill, Freud remained unconvinced of the imminent danger to his life, prompting a dedicated group of friends and family members—including his daughter Anna and a Welsh physician—to work tirelessly to persuade him to leave. This compelling narrative chronicles their efforts to help Freud emerge from denial, ultimately allowing him and his family to find refuge in England during the final months of his life.
