A Kind of Alaska (1984)

Drama
Release Date: 1984, December 16
Directors: Kenneth Ives
Cast: Paul Scofield

Overview:

A masterly study of a middle-aged woman waking up after 30 years passed in a coma induced by sleeping sickness. In her mind she is still 16, and her attempts to fathom the changed world into which she re-emerges is not only poignant and emotionally charged but, in the end, devastatingly brilliant theatre as well.
