Ibsen's A Doll's House is an iconic classic. The play was integral in establishing realism as a theatrical form and continues to be a provocative portrayal of a woman suffering in a man's world.

The play has further been adapted here, with Nora being shown as pregnant, after almost eight years of her marriage with Torvald Helmer.

Nora and Torvald Helmer have a seemingly traditional, settled marriage. Torvald adores his wife, although he patronizes her and belittles her comprehension of the world. However, Nora has lived with a secret for several years. She forged her father�s signature in order to borrow money to take her husband to Europe for recuperation after an illness. Her husband, Torvald, is now in a senior position working at the bank and Nora has been paying off the loan in instalments. They are being visited by an ailing friend Dr.Rank, who seems to be the closest friend of the couple.

Nora's secret seems vulnerable when Torvald threatens to fire Nils Krogstad, the man Nora had borrowed the money from. Krogstad in lieu of this prepares to let everyone know about Nora's secret.

Nora�s friend, Kristine Linde, offers to help Nora, revealing that she and Krogstad used to be in a relationship and she still loves him deeply. However, when Krogstad reveals Nora�s actions in a letter, Torvald dismisses her sacrifice, worrying only about his own reputation. Nora realises that Torvald does not value or truly know her as an individual and decides to leave her husband in an attempt to discover herself.
