The Cobweb
“The Story of the Strange Mansion on the Hill”
Drama
Patients and staff at a posh psychiatric clinic clash over who chooses the clinic’s new drapes - but drapes are the least of their problems.
VIBE
A stifling, darkly humorous look inside a gilded cage. It's a quiet unraveling, where petty squabbles mask deeper anxieties and the walls feel like they're closing in. A mood piece that lingers long after the credits.
