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. 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.
Jakob Ladányi Jancsó
Jakob first studied psychology at Freie Universität Berlin before, in 2019, taking up a master’s degree in film directing at the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest. He withdrew from the university in his second year in protest at the undemocratic restructuring taking place there but was able to complete his degree thanks to the Emergency Exit Programme of the FreeSZFE association at the Vienna Film Academy. He has worked closely with Béla Tarr for whom he was an assistant and is currently developing his debut feature film.
