When John Ballantine (Gregory Peck), the new director of a mental asylum arrives on the job, the staff is concerned. He seems to be too young for the position and his answers to their questions are vague and detached. Dr. Peterson (Ingrid Bergman) while knowing he is an imposter with emotional issues, nevertheless falls in love with him. Turning to her mentor Dr. Alex Brulov (Michael Chekhov) and the use of Freudian psychoanalysis, she tries to get to the root of Ballantine's emotional problems. (official distributor synopsis)
