| "Freud" is the nickname of Rosha and Ruben Cohen’s youngest daughter, a 25 year-old who still lives with them in Stockholm. Freud is contrary, intellectually precocious and despite feeling smothered by living at home, unable to leave her Holocaust survivor mother. In the summer of 1990 Freud is joined at home by her gay brother from Miami and her Orthodox sister from Israel to celebrate their mother’s 60th birthday. But when Freud falls in love and Rosha falls ill, the family finds itself coping with a crisis everyone is ill-equipped to handle. A bittersweet romantic comedy. |
