Shadows Whisper in the Mind

Michael Garber

In the shadows of the mind, where logic and fear intertwine, Dr. Viktor Kessler navigates a labyrinth of death anxiety and lost realities. A renowned psychiatrist, Viktor shields his own struggles with depersonalization behind a veneer of scientific prowess, yet his mind whispers doubts that his soul cannot ignore. Drawn into the orbit of Sofia, a charismatic actress whose existential dread beckons him toward boundaries he'd rather avoid, Viktor finds his orderly world spiraling into chaos.

Haunted by his own derealization and a growing attraction to Sofia, Viktor is thrust into profound dialogues with Professor Vogel, the voice of scientific reason, and Father Joseph, a monk whose spiritual wisdom tests the limits of Viktor's rational beliefs. Each patient he encounters is a mirror reflecting life's myriad philosophies, echoing his unease and deepening his quest for life's purpose.

As derealization episodes blur reality, a pivotal hypnosis session shatters the facade, confronting Viktor with unsettling truths and desires lurking beneath his consciousness. The line between sanity and madness dims, leaving Viktor to wrestle with a reality that feels increasingly fragile. Trapped in his own crisis, can Viktor achieve enlightenment, or will the shadows within claim him forever?
