No Exit

The movie No Exit traps you right beside the young woman. At first, she just looks confused. She walks the hallway, goes up, and comes right back. But soon confusion turns to panic. She runs. She sweats. She breathes hard. Nothing changes. The blue door with bullet holes always sends her back. She tries to be smart about it. She tears a tiny piece of paper from her book. She uses her pen to pin that paper on the wall of the corridor. This is her marker. If she is really moving forward, the paper should not be there when she returns. But guess what? She runs the whole loop again. She opens the blue door. She comes back to the hallway. And there, on the wall, is the same piece of paper staring at her. She did not go anywhere. The loop is perfect. She cannot fool it. The movie shows her running and running until she is completely broken. No energy left. No hope. Finally, she just stands in front of the blue door with empty eyes. She accepts that she cannot leave. She steps through anyway, and the title No Exit appears. You are left wondering: What did she do to deserve this? And will she walk that hallway forever?
