Coline Covington talks to Elisabeth Márton, Director of My name was Sabina Spielrein (Ich hiess Sabina Spielrein) The film follows a surprising discovery that was made in a cellar in Geneva in 1977. Letters and diaries were found, among them an extensive correspondence between two of the most influential men in early history of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung, and an unknown Russian woman named Sabina Spielrein. Her records reveal their unusual relationship and expose a dramatic story behind the academic façade. They bear witness to her enduring search for the deepest secrets of the human psyche. The film is also a historical document of the early period of psychoanalysis. A Swedish, Swiss, Finnish and Danish collaboration produced this 90‐minute documentary in German with English subtitles in 2002.
