Angels in the Asylum

In early 1900s Surrey, fifty women labeled as typhoid carriers face unjust confinement at Long Grove Asylum. Isolated and stigmatized, they endure harsh conditions while fighting for their basic human rights against a cruel medical system. (Filming began in February 2025 and lasted 15 days before being halted indefinitely due to lack of funding; two months later, production company AITA Films Limited filed for bankruptcy.)
