A psychological drama about memory, grief, and the rebellion of a calm mind.
When Lena, a respected trauma therapist, suddenly collapses and loses her mind, she wakes up to find herself trapped in a silent, dull room with no doors, no windows, and no explanation.
But she's not alone.
A mysterious voice appears, pages begin to write themselves in a red notebook, and a child's laughter echoes in the silence. As Lena struggles to maintain her grip on reality, the room begins to reveal a past she's buried: the memory of a little girl named Elise and a line she should never have crossed.
Outside her mind, Lena lies comatose in a hospital bed. Inside, she must confront the truth she's refused to accept—a truth that has driven her to build a prison of guilt and silence.
To escape, she must confront the illusion she's built to survive... and the grief she feared would destroy her.
"The Room Doesn't Breathe" is a moving exploration of psychological breakdown and emotional rebirth, perfect for fans of Emma Donoghue's "Room" and Gillian Flynn's "Sharp Objects."
