Somnia

About This Movie

So, 'Somnia' is interesting. It’s a fantasy piece that explores the blurred lines between dreams and reality. Jenny, the main character, deals with insomnia but finds solace in her dreams where she visits her late mother. The atmosphere is quite haunting yet comforting at the same time, which is a hard balance to achieve. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to linger in those dream sequences, almost like you're drifting in and out of wakefulness yourself. The practical effects are subtle but effective, adding a layer of authenticity. Performances, especially from the lead, ground the narrative. It’s this unique take on grief and longing that sets it apart, making you ponder the value of dreams versus reality.
