André and Vera are a young entrepreneurial couple. They get the opportunity to pitch their female health app at a prestigious competition. Before going there, Vera tries hypnotherapy to quit smoking. From this point, her attitude changes and André starts to behave unexpectedly.

Winner of the Best Actor Award at the Karlovy Vary Festival, The Hypnosis is a razor-sharp social satire on conformity and relationships. Herbert Nordrum and Asta August, two of Nordic cinema's buzziest actors, make the most of the sharply observant screenplay and clever dialogues and this fresh and modern film.
