About the film

When newcomer Alexis joins a Manhattan therapy group and reveals he wants to write a TV series based on their sessions, it threatens the group’s balance and exposes everyone’s vulnerabilities.

Freely inspired by Irvin D. Yalom’s novel The Schopenhauer Cure, the film The Schopenhauer Effect blends scripted and improvised elements to dynamically explore group therapy as it truly happens.
