Argumento
In the late 1960s, Susanna Kaysen (Winona Ryder) finds herself committed to Claymoore psychiatric hospital after a suicide attempt. Initially expecting a 'short rest,' she soon realizes it's difficult to leave once admitted. She meets an eclectic group of patients including Georgina Tuskin (Catherine Keener), Polly Clark (Elisabeth Moss), Janet Webber (Brittany Murphy), Daisy Randone (Angela Bettis), and Lisa Rowe (Angelina Jolie). Lisa, a sociopath, manipulates the other patients, initially gaining control over Susanna. Over time, Susanna learns to assert her independence and challenge Lisa's dominance. After an 18-month stay, Susanna is released but struggles with her newfound identity.
