Sleep Paralysis

Vojtěch Starý / Czech Republic / 2023 / World Premiere / 4 min.


synopsis

A man, whose mutated, darkly vibrating voice guides us through a space of disintegrating, divided or merging visual fragments, describes his own experience of compulsively waking up and falling asleep again, and of dreams diving into one another. In the abysmal depths of repeated dreams of being awake, he does not leave the space of his bed; reality, however, weighs down on him more and more heavily.
