MEYER, Luiz. Address unknown. []. , 33, 50, pp.126-138. ISSN 0101-3106.

The work stems from the film Address unknown, produced in 1944, whose plot is portrayed in detail and where letters play a major role. This psychological drama takes place in the early 30s in Germany, and describes the gradual pulling away of a family-oriented refined man, an art merchant and dependable partner, and his journey toward Nazism and moral degradation, brought about by an evil aristocratic figure who fascinates him. The author links the story to a few works on this subject by Freud, Rosenfeld, Bion and Meltzer and concludes the article by narrating a personal experience evoked by the end of the film.
