Synopsis

A highly decorated Jewish WWII veteran, Bernard Bail was captured by the Nazis and rescued by a secret love affair with his German nurse––a pivotal experience that exposed him to a new world of spirituality and feelings and ultimately to the power of the feminine. After the war, Bail came to believe that all wars are the manifestation of the wars within ourselves. Dedicated to healing mental anguish, he became a doctor and psychoanalyst who continued where Freud stopped, developing the “mother’s imprint,” a radical new theory that strikes at the root of all mental illness. Bail believes it is the centuries of abuse and oppression women have suffered that has brought us to this tipping point and that “women must have a place at the table if there’s to be peace in the world.”
