Tower of Dreams is a documentary about Christiana Morgan (1897–1967), a psychoanalyst and artist who played a significant role in the development of modern psychology. Filmmaker Hilary Morgan explores her grandmother’s renegade life as an early feminist who, while exploring her own unconscious, became an extraordinary influence in the advancement of Jungian psychology. Morgan created artistic work as an embodiment of her inner life, including a series of illustrated manuscripts, wood carvings, and a stone tower that became a personal retreat where she transformed her visions into art. These works would reveal a strong feminine voice, inspired by her psychoanalytic work with Carl Jung. Exploring and illustrating her psyche was a lifelong process for Morgan, as she became Carl Jung’s most studied patient.
