The Yellow Wallpaper

This unsettling and intense adaptation of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s provocative gothic feminist horror tale delves into themes of patriarchy and hysteria. The story follows Jane, a writer and new mother, whose doctor husband, John, prescribes a period of rest. He takes her to a secluded country house for the summer. There, Jane becomes fixated on the strange yellow wallpaper in the bedroom he selected for her. In her solitude, she clandestinely writes about a woman ensnared within the wallpaper, whom she feels compelled to liberate.
