I was around 7-9yr old and would watch it at my great grandparents house on vhs. I was young so it must’ve been somewhat age appropriate, not like an adult movie. I remember the mom and dad kept having boys and they wanted a girl. Or maybe they kept having girls and wanted a boy. They kept one girl in the attic I believe, but it was bright with some windows, and the mom drew her a bath in a claw foot tub that was in like the middle of the room. She poored water on her and I think it was hot water. I think the girl would look out the window at her siblings outside. I can’t remember much more than that. It was in English and in color. I think the girl would wear a dress. I’m beginning to think I will never figure it out.
Also, the mother was like torturing her with the bath. Pouring scalding hot water on her. Punishing her. The girl was maybe around 12.
Sounds similar to The People Under the Stairs (1991)
