Death and the Maiden is a 1994 mystery drama film directed by Roman Polanski. It was based on the 1990 play by Ariel Dorfman.

Paulina Escobar is a housewife married to a prominent lawyer in an unnamed South American country (hinting to be Chile). One day a storm forces her husband Gerardo to ride home with a charming stranger, while the power at his home is cut. She is convinced that the stranger, Dr. Miranda, was part of the old regime and that he tortured and raped her for weeks while she was blindfolded. Paulina takes him captive to determine the truth. Despite attempts by both her husband and Miranda to convince her that he is innocent, Paulina is certain that he is the one, and forces her husband to be Miranda's "attorney" in the "trial" she arranges for him.
