Sibyl
Directed by Justine Triet
Produced by Les Films Pelléas, France 2 Cinéma
A psychologically intricate drama about a therapist's dangerous obsession with a patient, exploring the blurred boundaries between professional detachment and personal desire.
Sibyl, a jaded psychotherapist, returns to her first passion: writing. But her newest patient Margot, a troubled up-and-coming actress, proves to be a source of inspiration that is far too tempting. Fascinated almost to the point of obsession, Sibyl becomes more and more involved in Margot’s tumultuous life, reviving volatile memories that bring her face to face with her past.
