“Awake at Dawn” mingles narrative, experimental and animation techniques to enter the subconscious of a man who decides to abandon sleep in an attempt to refine his mind, body and spirit. Over the course of several sleepless nights the character slips further away from his immediate reality. In this misguided quest for fulfillment, the character alienates what is really important to him: the woman he loves, who in facing emotional abandonment leaves him in an ultimately sobering state of sleeplessness.
