Bad Apples

The 1970s was a time of great revolution as students protested in the streets against the injustices of the world. One of those students is a woman who was committed to a sanatorium for her activism. While in this sanatorium, she was forced to take part in experimental procedures on female patients. Horrified by such an insitution, the woman continues her protests from within by fighting back against the doctors that have caged her in such a nightmarish situation.
