To five-year-old Jack, ‘Room’ is his entire world. It is his place of birth; where he eats, sleeps and has spent every moment of his life. Every “thing” in ‘Room’ is his friend and every day is an adventure. When night arrives, Jack’s ingenuous look on life gives way to Ma’s painful reality when Old Nick returns home to claim what he, in his mind, made his. On Jack’s fifth birthday, Ma devises a plan and they manage to escape. The real challenge begins when they step into a world that has become as foreign to Ma as it is to Jack. Their ordeal is moving and captivating and it is a true testament to what fierce motherly love can overcome.Room is a celebration of love, courage and an homage to the magical bond between mother and son. Through Abhramson’s eclectic and vivid visual style the audience will be exposed to two worlds that will bring Donoghue’s book to new heights.
