Logline: Anthony, an obsessive artist, secretly falls in love with his roommate. His violin music turns into manic fixation for unrequited love, leading to tragic consequences.Severe Love and Violin is a psychological thriller, exploring the extremities of obsessive love, from the point of view of Anthony, a socially isolated violinist.
Anthony lacks the social skills required to start and sustain a love relationship, and hopes to make up for his lack of competence through Violin music. His neurotic musical notes are in effect an expression of his inner turbulent soul.
He is rooming with Irene, a naïve recent graduate trying to make ends meet. Irene fails to read the coded love messages behind Anthony’s violin music, and treats the lovesick Anthony with nonchalance. However, Anthony soon finds an escape out of his dilemma, by proposing marriage to Irene in his dreams.
In a desperate attempt to address his pain, Anthony seeks the intervention of a Psychologist, who gives him a more puzzling diagnosis: He is suffering from "severe love and violin”, the first of its kind in psychoanalytical therapy!
Realizing he has inadvertently put an end to his object of affection, he plays the last note on his violin, to escape from what seems to be a complicated nightmarish life.
In these Scenes:
Anthony’s psychological troubles get the better of him, as he tries to become a “proxy” father to Irene’s “babies”. Faced with contradictions of an astonishing kind, he marries Irene in his ‘dreams’, then proceeds to seek his Psychologist’s intervention. Dr. Polanski’s diagnosis presents the most bizarre discovery in the entire history of Clinical Psychology!
