Synopsis
Tainy Dushi (Secrets of the Soul, 2011) is a Russian documentary series you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Anastasia Stroeva, it traces the lives of the people who set out to heal the mind rather than the body — the scientists of the 19th and 20th centuries who laid the groundwork for psychoanalysis, psychiatry and hypnosis.
Each episode follows a single figure. Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, Cesare Lombroso and Franz Mesmer, Alfred Adler, Philippe Pinel, R. D. Laing, David Rosenhan — names behind ideas modern psychology can't do without, and behind private struggles that rarely make the textbooks. The tone stays away from dry academia, which makes it work both for working therapists and for anyone meeting the subject for the first time. Stream the series online on iFILM.
