Is The Film Room Based On A True Story. The Room is a movie based on a true life incidence it was inspired by the real-life story of Josef Fritzl an Austrian man who for 24 years confined his daughter in his basement where she gave birth to seven children fathered by him. A little bit of everything but the 24 years in the basement certainly that was her right.
The film is directed by Alex Merkin known for films like This Modern Man is Beat and House of the Witch. This scene was born out of an experience Younger had five years ago when he accompanied an acquaintance employed in a boiler room to just such a meeting. The next day she returned for a follow-up session for which she would receive 7000.
