The Yellow Wallpaper
2016, 80 minutes
A 1950's adaptation of a seminal work of feminist literature (written in 1892 by Charlotte Perkins Gilman), The Yellow Wallpaper.
A woman and her physician husband rent an old mansion for the summer. They move into the upstairs nursery where the wife is confined as a type of therapy for her condition, a perceived nervous breakdown. Eleanor struggles with post-partum depression, however, when Eleanor's over-protective husband refuses to recognize her illness, he confines her to a room. Slowly, Eleanor loses sight of her sanity, and the patterns in the yellow wallpaper come to life.
