Resumen
We start the analysis by assuming that there is not a door that permits the access to the law in Orson Welles’ The Trial. The guardian, who should prohibit the entry into the mother's space by allowing the character's immersion in the Oedipus plot, does not appear as such. In the absence of that third element, there can be no symbolic story; there is, instead, a nightmare. The door longed by the Subject, the desire for his existence, becomes in The Trial an imaginary projection within a story of persecution that takes place with the very precision of paranoia.
