Virginia Cunningham finds herself in a state insane
asylum...and can't remember how she got there. In
flashback, her husband Robert relates their courtship,
marriage, and her developing symptoms. The asylum
staff are not demonized, but fear, ignorance and
regimentation keep Virginia in a state of misery,
as pipesmoking Dr. Mark Kik struggles through wheels
within wheels to find the root of her problem. Then a
relapse plunges Virginia back into the harrowing 'Snake Pit'.
