List of films set in a single location
This page lists films that are set fully, or almost entirely, in only one location. Such films are sometimes referred to as "bottle movies"[ 1] or "chamber pieces".[ 2] [ 3] [ 4] In June 2023, film critic Chris Stuckmann speculated that the limitations that chamber pieces bring not only make writers self-conscious but also drive their creativity.[ 5]
