Whole Plot Reference: The film is a loose reworking of Federico Fellini's film Juliet of the Spirits, both being about a middle-aged wife with a neglecting husband dealing with repressed sexuality and having visions of people and things from her past, the difference being the methods the protagonists use to achieve their deeper understanding being slightly different (Alice through drugs from a herbalist, Juliet through a psychic who opens a sort of psychic door on her).
