Storyline
| Plot Summary |
An established poet is trapped in an asylum by two crazy doctors in competition over diametrically opposed schools of thought. One believes in a "classic" method where the other promotes a "revolutionary" metaphysical approach to treatment. The poet yearns for freedom: to live and create but his hands are literally tied. Escape is a must. He befriends a compassionate nurse who falls in love with him. As the story evolves reality shifts where people die and then resurrect. Through her emotional strength and courage the nurse attempts to rescue the poet from a fatal future taking us on a poetic journey with a twisted but enlightened ending.
