The Science of Sleep

Sigmund Freud once wrote that going to the movies is much like going to sleep. You dim the lights, find a comfortable seat, and open your mind to whatever images pass in front of you. In writer-director Michel Gondry's new film, The Science of Sleep he takes Freud's idea one step further, comparing the sleep cycle to an internal television station in which the dreamer is host and star of every show.

The Science of Sleep

Eric and J.D. try in vain to figure out where dreams end and reality begins in Michel Gondry's new film, The Science of Sleep. Then they realize that's not the point and just give in to its unique charms.

Following the death of his father in Mexico, Stéphane Miroux, a shy insecure young man, agrees to come to Paris to draw closer to his widowed mother Christine. He lands a boring job at a calendar-making firm and falls in love with his charming neighbor Stéphanie. But conquering her is no bed of roses for the young man and the only solution he finds to put up with the difficulties he is going through is escape into a dream world.
