Confusion

NOVEMBER 21 · 2026

Denis comes to psychotherapist Marta looking for help, but as their conversations unfold, it becomes increasingly difficult to tell who is the patient and who is doing the healing. Funny, vulnerable, and full of unexpected turns, Confusion is a story about two people trying to make sense of their fears, relationships, and themselves — and perhaps finding each other in the process.
