A Page of Madness (1926)

1:10:43 Free

Set inside a mental asylum, this haunting silent film follows a janitor who takes the job in hopes of caring for his institutionalized wife. As reality fractures into hallucination and dream, the film plunges into a torrent of distorted images, rhythmic editing and emotional intensity. Directed by Teinosuke Kinugasa, A Page of Madness is a radical experiment in cinematic expression and one of the most striking achievements of early Japanese cinema.
