Room 8 is a short film, winner of the Bombay Sapphire's Imagination Series. It was
written and directed by James W. Griffiths. A prisoner in a Russian prison is intrigued
by a red box which he was told to not touch . Should he open it? What will he find inside?
This film makes a great opportunity for discussion and speaking practice.
Watch and start the discussion!Here are some ideas for discussion:
1) Comprehension
- Where are the people?
- What is in the red box?
- Describe the room.
- Does the prisoner manage to escape? Why/why not?
2) Further discussion:
- What is the message (if any) of this short film?
- How does the idiom"curiosity killed the cat" apply to this story?
- What would have happened if the prisoner hadn't opened the box?
- What would you have done in the prisoner's place?
