Shadow Box is the passionate story of a woman, who as she matures, breaks out of the enclosing case with a glass pane that has displayed her as a sexual object. It describes her expanding awareness, as mores change and women gain newfound self acceptance and strength. Today, there is not only the glass ceiling of power for a woman to shatter, but the glass box of gender equality to smash, a different dynamic, resulting in the shadow box of sexual submission and repression lying in pieces before her and a life to be truly lived.
