Wiki.
The Glass Ceiling (Spanish:El techo de cristal) is a 1971 psychological thriller film, written and directed by Eloy de la Iglesia. It stars Carmen Sevilla, Dean Selmier and Patty Shepard.
The plot follows a bored housewife who begins to suspect that her upstairs neighbor killed her invalid husband. Sevilla won a major award in her home country (the Cinema Writers Circle Award) for this performance.
The film is somewhat inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window (1954) and the paranoia classic George Cukor's Gaslight (1944). The film was a commercial success.
