LIVING STONES

Jakob Ladányi Jancsó | Hungary 2025 20m

Berlinale

Synopsis

Natasa undergoes therapy at an unorthodox rehabilitation centre far from the city. Her sessions with her therapist are slow and uneasy, as she is reluctant to trust him. Tormented by long-buried memories and suicidal thoughts, she reveals only fragments of her past and her dreams to him, while he pushes her to confront truths she is struggling to face. When the therapist introduces her to horse therapy, she finds a fragile sense of connection and acceptance that gives her the courage to revisit her darkest moments. The boundaries between therapist and patient start to blur, their interactions grow increasingly intimate, and the chasm between healing and harm widens.
