The Sealed Room is a 1926 Australian silent film directed by and starring Arthur Shirley about a blind man who uncovers a plot by a group of anarchists to overthrow the monarchy in a fictitious country.

It was Shirley's last film. Unable to raise finance for a proposed version of J.H.M. Abbott's novel Castle Vane, he went to Rhodesiato launch a new production company. When this failed he returned to Australia.[1]
