Girl, Interrupted charts the experiences of eighteen-year-old Susanna Kaysen as she is suddenly - and without warning - incarcerated in a mental hospital, then made to spend the next two years of her life in a ward reserved for teenage girls, within an institution renowned for its famous clientele: Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell, James Taylor, Ray Charles. Mangold's adaptation of Kaysen's extraordinary memoir is unsettling but unflinching, funny but deeply poignant.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

The film version of the national bestseller by Susanna Kaysen, which The New York Times Book Review called a "compelling and heartbreaking story, " Girl, Interrupted was written and directed by James Marigold and stars Winona Ryder as a teenager sent against her will to a psychiatric hospital for two years, only to find a deeply troubled community of souls who somehow manage to help one another heal. Marigold provides an Introduction in which he reflects on his graduation from low-budget independent cinema to a big-budget studio picture, while nevertheless continuing to explore unsettling, often unglamorous human stories with his particular blend of human empathy and an unblinking eye for the details of existence.
