Sigmund Freud must now muster all his psychological skill to move Klaus Harranth mission.

Family replacement is the title of the second episode of Christian Hagitte and Simon Bertelings latest series' Prof. Sigmund Freud ', where the famous psychoanalyst plays a decisive role. In the first episode a more action-emphasized story was told and set the framework for the series. Unlike here where the conversation between Freud and his patient is in the foreground and occupies most of the runtime. This shows what really can put anything in the series, because the conversation between Freud and Klaus Harranth goes very deep into the psyche of the man and sees the people as a whole ', as well as the real figure of Prof. Sigmund Freud would have done it , It shows the depths of people, a family, and so also builds on the theories of Freud, but presented very exciting and entertaining. One can not wait for the latest developments. The scenes with Anna Freud and Karl Gruber fit wonderfully into the overall concept, break up the intense conversation between Freud and Harranth and care by the interruptions for additional power. The end result includes the perfectly written, the resolution of the case perfectly. This episode is the first at least equal, and shows how varied and different in their effect may be the series.
As in the previous episode, Anna Freud is again spoken of Felicitas Woll also here. The otherwise rather known from film and television actress is here that they can only convince with their voice and takes the dark mood of the series on. Wanja Mues is here in de cameo of Klaus Harranth hear his emotive presentation provides some shivers, he brings the explosive nature of his character very good effect. As a super-ego is again Nicolas Artajo hear, skillfully gives the abstract concept one vote. Other speakers include David Wittmann, Ranja Bonalana and Barbara Rust.
A very special series like this deserves a very special acoustic implementation. So the music was played by a large orchestra, which gives a very evocative basis for the story. Portions of It and superego are provided with striking sounds and translated these sections skillfully from the actual story from. So an almost artfully calling atmospheric design was created.
Very successful, the design of the title image, on which can be seen as the center again a portrait of Freud. Around motifs from the radio play and the embossed with silver foil lettering him. But unlike the first episode greens are used here instead of Brown. Inside three new information texts found on the subject of the radio play.
Conclusion: Quite different from the first episode, very reduced to the conversation and penetrates deep into the human psyche. Quite outstanding!
