Plot
Jack (Jacob Tremblay), a child of five, lives with his mother (Brie Larson) in a little room of 3x3 meters. She's been there enclosed, by force, for seven years, so for Jack the world, all he knows, is encapsulated in that room (which his mother has called, euphemistically, as "The Room"). Also, for the mother, all that matters in the world is her son, so she strives earnestly to try that Jack lead a life as normal as possible, within those four walls. But Jack's curiosity to know more, from his age, growing and growing, at the same time the concern of his mother. The way forward is simple... 'Room' is an adaptation of the successful novel by Emma Donoghue, also responsible for writing the script. The film was praised by critics considerably and has been awarded the Audience Award for Best Film at the Toronto Film Festival.
