The Piano Teacher

An Evening of Film and Discussion on the Dynamics of Perversion

The evening will start with the viewing of the film The Piano Teacher, directed by Michael Haneke and based on the novel by Elfrieda Jelinek. The film explores a mother - daughter relationship that allows a deeper understanding of the perverse reaction that it provokes. It is a brilliant but disturbing portrayal which has led to emotional discomfort in some viewers.

The film show will be followed by a presentation by Estela Welldon in dialogue with Lionel Kreeger. Estela Welldon is a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, Forensic Psychiatrist and an internationally respected authority on the dynamics of perversion, author of the acclaimed Mother, Madonna, Whore. Lionel Kreeger is a Freudian Psychoanalyst and Group-Analyst.
