- In 1890s New England, Charlotte is suffering from postpartum depression. John, her physician husband, misdiagnoses her with hysteria - a blanket term used for everything that men found mysterious or unmanageable in women. He prescribes her the experimental rest cure treatment and takes her to the countryside where she is confined in a room with no stimuli, except for the yellow wallpaper. Over the course of a summer, Charlotte is drugged, gaslit and isolated in the room, causing her to hallucinate a woman trapped within the patterns of the paper. Charlotte, at the end of her rope, has a mental breakdown climaxing in a Flamenco-inspired dance where she tears off the wallpaper in the room.
