1980s video memories with Peter Turner

The image shows a sparse, worn room that appears to be a former prison cell. The walls are yellowed and heavily stained, with patches of peeling paint and dark discoloration near the bottom. The floor has a checkerboard pattern of tan and white tiles. In the center of the room is a simple metal bed frame with a grid base and no mattress. On top of the bed frame sits a small metal box. Attached to the frame are metal shackles, suggesting restraints were used. The room has a barred window on the right side, allowing some daylight to enter, casting shadows on the floor. The overall atmosphere feels stark, somber, and austere.
