You shall not sleep

Gustavo Hernández

Synopsis

In an abandoned psychiatric hospital, a avant-garde theater group experiments with insomnia as they prepare for the staging of a play created twenty years earlier by a group of patients. With each passing sleepless day, they reach new thresholds of perception that expose them to hidden energies and stories within the place. When Bianca, a young theater prodigy, joins the cast in competition for the lead role, she must survive not only the intensity of the work and her fellow actors but also an unknown force that pushes her, and the others, toward the tragic outcome of the original performance.
