The Sixty-third Anniversary of Hysteria
The year is 1941, and Hitler's armies have swept across Europe. Nora, a budding young Surrealist artist, has fled to Mexico with B.B., a much older and acclaimed Surrealist playwright down on his luck. Hundreds of European artists and writers have formed a colony in Mexico City, and Nora befriends Valencia, a fellow Surrealist artist and refugee.
Together the friends explore Jungian psychology and the power of symbols in their Art.
But Nora is plagued by an abusive relationship with B.B. She embarks on a harrowing journey deep into her own troubled psyche.
Inspired by the lives of the brilliant visionary Surrealist artists Remedios Varo and Leonora Carrington. A Postscript and a list of Sources follows the story.
