The Man Who Sleeps

  • Log in or register to post comments

In the bustling heart of Paris, a young student finds himself trapped between the chaos of urban life and his own inner world. With a camera that observes everything, the protagonist immerses himself in an almost dreamlike existence, where his days slip away in a monotonous routine. However, what seems to be a normal life in the city soon reveals the internal struggle of an individual who feels disconnected from his surroundings. While his friends and acquaintances try to pull him into the whirlwind of modern life, he chooses to distance himself, preferring the comfort of his own solitude.

In a play of light and shadow, the young man escapes into his mind, where thoughts and memories intertwine in a mosaic of emotions and reflections. As his days pass in a whisper of indifference, he finds himself drawn to a woman who seems to be his only connection to the outside world. However, his inability to interact with his surroundings leads him deeper into an abyss, where reality and dreams dangerously merge.

As the story unfolds, the boundary between the desire for connection and the fear of being hurt blurs, leaving the protagonist in an existential limbo. With poetic prose and an enveloping atmosphere, the film becomes a visual portrait of alienation in contemporary society. In the end, what should be a journey of self-discovery transforms into a profound reflection on isolation.
