The story

In 1930s Berlin, Zina is being treated by the Adlerian psychotherapist Professor Arthur Kronfeld. During the psychoanalysis, which includes hypnosis, she recalls incidents both from her own life and that of her father, as a leader of the Russian Revolution, as the holder of state power and later in exile. Against the background of the progressive deterioration of the situation in Europe, threatened by the rise of fascism and the spectre of the Second World War, Zina's identification with Antigone becomes more and more credible.
