Two strangers meet while sleepwalking... only they’re not strangers at all, but a couple on the verge of breaking up. Night after night, their unconscious selves drift back to one another, revisiting shared memories and the small moments exhibiting the love that once felt inevitable. As daylight pulls them further apart, the film asks: What happens to the emotional clutter we accumulate in a relationship when it’s about to end? A surreal romance and an ode to the parts of us that still carry a torch for the love we used to have.
