Synopsis
Nora Helmer has been living with her smug husband Torvald in blissful ignorance of everything that an adult should know. When her husband falls ill, she forges a check to send him for a cure in Italy, believing with perfect naïveté that it is the correct thing to do and that he will support her in case of trouble. After Nora's crime is exposed, she gets the full impact of Torvald's fury at her ignorance for which he has been responsible. Nora then slams the door of her doll's house and wanders out into the night in search of surroundings where she can be treated as a human being.
