Description
A young man from his native Attersee abandons home in late summer 1937 to seek his fortune in Vienna, where he finds work selling newspapers and tobacco. This humble post allows him to observe the intersection of working-class life and the Jewish bourgeoisie, a setting that sparks his desire to understand the world around him.
As he navigates this new reality, Franz becomes infatuated with Anezka, a girl who embodies lightness and mystery. Desperate for connection, he turns to Sigmund Freud, the famous psychoanalyst who is also a regular customer at his workplace. Despite his advanced age and weariness, Freud agrees to help the young man, but their time together is cut short by the uncertain events of 1938.
The arrival of the Anschluss in March 1938 marks a brutal end to Franz's education and his relationship with Freud, leaving him to confront the harsh realities of his new world.
