V13, a Talk by Richard Ledes

Richard Ledes wrote the screenplay for V13 based on a play by the renowned French psychoanalyst and writer Alain Didier-Weill. Researching and reflecting on the rise of extreme German nationalism in Vienna before WWI and how it gave rise to the ideology of Nazism after were lifelong pursuits of Didier-Weill. He was himself analyzed by Jacques Lacan, the controversial French psychoanalyst who was one of the most important intellectual figures of the 20th century. The roots of his interest, no doubt, go back to the experiences of his own Jewish family during the occupation of France but also to his conviction that it was important for all of humanity to examine the roots of the Nazi ideology—just as Freud had felt psychoanalysis was important for all of humanity. Filmed overtly in New York City, V13 raises unsettling questions about the relation between this moment in the past and the rise of ethnonationalism in the present.
