Here's a synopsis for Padiglione 22 from the production: "Laura Marotti lives a perfectly normal and hectic life, until the spirit of her brother Valerio comes back to haunt her. Valerio, diagnosed a schizophrenic and practically buried alive in a private institution, manages to escape to and then die in the asylum where he had been locked up as a child, in Ward 22, before the Basaglia Law was passed. In 1978, the Basaglia Law outlawed all mental asylums. ¶ Laura, who has felt guilty about the way she had treated this brother with the absent stare - the family's burden - will become haunted by his menacing and ever-present spirit, from the day of his death. It will be an obsessive reminder of her painful indifference. ¶ Between her increasing anxiety and suffering caused by these dream-like visions, Laura will be plunged back into the 1970s, living out moments from the past, and hallucinating encounters with a much younger Valerio and other patients' ghosts. It will be the beginning of a tug-of war between Laura and the ghost… or is it between Laura and her guilt?"
