Summary |
A nurse uses 'experimental' treatment methods to save a patient from tumbling into the abyss of madness. She uses trust, dedication & affection as her only tools, while trying to combat his desperation, paranoia, & animosity. Her patient is unable to express his feelings toward a woman who mistreated him, where she only used him for his talents then discarded him. The nurse tries to convince the woman responsible that her patient needs her for his rehabilitation. This then leads to her being admonished by the head of the hospital. She declines into a state of depression as she is told to forget/deny her true feelings for a patient under her treatment. This, ultimately leads to her demise as she remains forced into silence (Khamoshi) |
