Macy, Cas Anvar, Amanda Brugel, Wendy Crewson, Joe Pingue, Megan ParkCountry of production:cnDescription:24-year-old Joy and her five-year-old son Jack live in a squalid shed they call Room. They share a bed, toilet, bathtub, television, and rudimentary kitchen; the only window is a skylight. They are captives of a man they call Old Nick, Jack’s father, who abducted Joy seven years ago, and routinely rapes her while Jack sleeps in the wardrobe. She tries to stay optimistic for her son and allows Jack to believe that only Room and its contents are real, and that the rest of the world exists only on television. After Jack and his mother escape from these enclosed surroundings, the boy discovers the outside world and both have to learn how to live again. <117mn 13s>Language:EnglishNotes:Genre:DRAMADetailed holdings information: -
