White Chamber is a British science-fiction thriller film directed by Paul Raschid and released in 2018. The movie takes place in a future where a civil war has broken out in the United Kingdom, with different factions fighting for control of the government and territory. The main character, known only as "The Young Woman" (played by Shauna Macdonald), is a member of one of the factions, but she wakes up in a clean, white cell with no memory of how she got there.
As the title suggests, the majority of the film takes place within this white chamber, a high-tech torture cell equipped with various devices that manipulate the environment and inflict physical pain on the prisoner. The Young Woman's captor is a man called "The Interrogator" (played by Oded Fehr), who seems to be a member of a rival faction and is trying to extract valuable information from her through these methods.
However, as the interrogation continues, it becomes apparent that The Young Woman may not be who she seems. She claims to have no information to give, but her knowledge of certain events and people suggests otherwise. As The Interrogator becomes more desperate and sadistic in his methods, the tension builds to a violent and unsettling conclusion.
White Chamber is a claustrophobic and intense film that explores themes of identity, politics, and power. It received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for its performances and atmosphere but criticism for its slow pace and limited scope.
