Feature films as psychotherapy. What role(s) do I play in my life? How can I find my true self? How can I get to know the script of my life, my life script? How do I take the director's seat myself? What roles are still waiting for me on the stages of life?

Margit and Ruediger Dahlke have combined their love for feature films and their cinematic experiences from over 30 years into this book, shaping it into a touching and moving form of psychotherapy. A book to reclaim your evenings by reading, watching, and feeling, turning them into true leisure time. Instead of hanging out in front of the television, the motto is to immerse oneself in films and rise above the patterns of everyday life, getting closer to the role in one's own life film, evening by evening and film by film. Those who observe the world—both the outer and the inner—and connect the two, gain a worldview, as great films allow.
