In this series of six meetings, participants will meet on zoom to discuss various Netflix series from a psychoanalytic perspective. This will be an opportunity to think as a group about these productions, thus enriching our appreciation of their historical and current cultural manifestations. The first discussion on Sept 25/22 will discuss “Amy Tan – An Unintended Memoir”. Watch as much as you have time for. Jacqueline Kutt has agreed to introduce and lead the discussion. Oct 30/22, we will watch Gabriela Poggi’s suggestion “The Lost Daughter” and she will kick off the discussion.
The coordinator, in consultation with the participants, will select future choices. Please feel free to send your suggestions to barbarajburrows@gmail.com.
There is no charge and no obligation to attend all the meetings, but each person must register to get the zoom link. Everyone will be informed what the title of the next series will be ahead of time.

- Have a psychoanalytic appreciation of the themes and dynamics of a number of culturally important series on Netflix.
