Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Closet Land is a 1991 dystopian drama written and directed by Radha Bharadwaj, starring Madeleine Stowe as an author of children's books and Alan Rickman as a ruthless interrogator. They're the only people who appear in the movie: the characters are never named, but Stowe's character is given a codename, AB234.Stowe's character is detained by the totalitarian government of an unnamed country and accused of inserting secret, subversive political messages into her latest book, Closet Land. The book is about a girl who is put into the closet by her mother while the mother goes out. While there, the girl imagines the clothes in the closet to be her friends. When her mother is about to come home, 'The Friendly Rooster' will crow, and the girl will put the clothes back in their places.Rickman's character, the interrogator, uses escalating mental and physical torture and elaborate lies to force the author to admit that the book really is propaganda aimed at children.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Big Brother Is Watching | |
Closet Land / int_5da3f522 | comment |
Big Brother Is Watching: The Interrogator tells the Author the government tapes all hospital room conversations to gain information, producing one she had while with her dying mother. He's also very well-informed about the Author overall, including intimate details of her personal life, thus the government is indicated to have spied on her for some time. | |

Black Bra and Panties | |
Closet Land / int_62deac00 | comment |
Black Bra and Panties: After knocking her out, the Interrogator puts the Author in these complete with clownish make-up and wakes her up to a blaring repetition of 'It has been estimated that [insert percentage] of all women who favor black underwear are closet whores'. He blames this on other officers, but later repeats the statistic. | |

Abusive Parents | |
Closet Land / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: The main character of the Author's novel has one-her mother locks her in the closet all day. Also, the Author's mother was at least neglectful if not abusive, failing to notice that her boyfriend was sexually abusing her child. | |
