We all dream — but what was it like to dream under Nazism?

In the years after 1933, journalist Charlotte Beradt secretly collected the dreams of ordinary people living in Nazi Germany. These striking accounts show how fear, pressure and uncertainty entered even the most private spaces of life, revealing moments of inner questioning, defiance and the struggle to maintain a sense-of-self.

Journalist and broadcaster Amanda Rubin is joined by Melinda Powell, co-founder of the Dream Research Institute and author of The Hidden Lives of Dreams, and psychotherapist Robin Shohet, author of Dream Sharing. Together they reflect on the difficult choices people faced as the regime invaded their inner lives, and how moments of awareness, doubt and courage could shape the possibility of resistance.
