In this episode, I spoke with Alexander Vesely about his grandfather, Viktor Frankl.
Viktor Emil Frankl, M.D., Ph.D. (1905-1997) is considered by many as one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century.
He was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist, as well as a Holocaust survivor.
Frankl is known by many via his best-selling book Man's Search For Meaning.
Alex Vesely is an Austrian-born filmmaker and trained psychotherapist.
His movie – “Viktor & I” – is an impactful documentary about his eminent grandfather, Viktor Frankl.
For three years, he traveled the world to bring us this insightful look at Viktor Frankl through the eyes of those closest to him.

Excellent interview. I did not know that Frankl had developed the concepts of Man’s Search For Meaning prior to him having an opportunity to put it into practice. Also that he studied with Alfred Adler. Good interview Ana. When there is love, there is meaning!!!
