Join the UCL Psychoanalysis Unit Lockdown Dreams team for a webinar celebrating the launch of our new animated film Uninvited Guests, in which psychoanalysts from the UK, Europe, the US and Canada discuss the significance of the vivid dreams that so many of us experienced during the pandemic.

The Lockdown Dreams team will describe the inception of the project and reflect on the dream data so far, and we will discuss the creative process with Connie Noble (illustrator/animator) & Leo Garbutt (sound).

We’ll reflect on the process of animating the unconscious in this film and our two previous shorts, and consider what we can learn from the dreams that people from all around the world shared with us during the extraordinary first year of the global pandemic.
