A young psychiatrist, Eleni Stavrianou, with painful experiences after her psychopathic father killed her mother and then committed suicide, is treating young Christina, who suffers from severe schizophrenia. In her efforts to help her, she clashes with the girl's family, who believe that salvation can only come from God. Because of this mindset, the relatives try to cure the sick girl with exorcisms. With all this, of course, the patient's condition continues to worsen, but the doctor also begins to gradually lose her footing and feel her mental balance and spiritual clarity being disrupted, until she herself is driven to schizophrenia.
Directed by Dimis Dadiras, The Possessed leans on a strong ensemble — Katia Dandoulaki, Vasilis Mitsakis, Giannis Heimonidis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1975.
