Clip is a commercial for a non-fiction book called “Sybil” about a woman with many personalities. The subject of the book has been identified as Shirley Ardell Mason.

The clip begins with a blonde woman crying to the camera, “I’m not a freak! I’m Sybil!” The woman performs a number of personalities or characters - like an older man with a raspy voice, a woman of high social status, and a little girl. The blonde woman then snaps out of her “performance” and begins crying and says, “Why are you doing this to me?!”

The cover of the novel is shown, revealing a woman’s image that is fragmented, perhaps a hint that the woman has multiple personalities - or inner voices or demons.

“Sybil,” written by Flora Rheta Schreiber, was released in 1973.
