Room 237(2013)

Stanley Kubrick's classic horror film "The Shining" is loved and hated by equal numbers. Loyalists consider it a genre standard and others see it as a mediocre work by a legendary director. Between these two poles are flourishing conspiracy theories of ardent fans who are convinced they have decoded the hidden meanings of "The Shining" regarding genocide, government conspiracy, and history. We hear from fans and scholars who espouse these theories, and rework scenes from the film forward and backward in an effort to locate deeper meanings.
