About

The Chinese Room is an award-winning 2009 independent feature. It was shot on location in Washington, DC with an all-local cast and crew. It is a self-financed thriller inspired by the famous thought experiment by John Searle.

Synopsis: John is a "real live John Doe," on the run when he finds the perfect job: quiet work, cash under the table, no questions asked. But in this office, the manager Bouchard enforces his list of freakish rules with charisma and cruelty, and forces John to betray his colleagues, filing reports on their lives. The more John learns to fear the office, the more he becomes a part of it. But - what is The Chinese Room?
