Initially raised in an acrid household, later locked into a dicey marriage, and ultimately saddled with a daughter she never wanted, Danielle attempts to take her own life multiple times before doctors are left with no other choice than to lock her away for the sake of her own safety. Not even sympathetic psychiatrist Dr. Neilson (Greta Scacchi) seems able to break through to the stoic patient whose hollow gaze that hints that any hope for salvation has long been lost. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
A movie that knows exactly who it is about, but doesn't know what it thinks of them.

Phil Coldiron, L.A. Weekly
To director-writer Alessandro Capone, suicide is just a plot device.
