A fluid camera traverses the curves of naked bodies sleeping in bliss. The soundtrack features fragments of the sleeping adventures of Dion McGregor, an unknown lyricist of the sixties. Every night his roommate used to record his mumbling, capturing the most genuine state of human freedom – the moments when reason is left unleashed and subconscious takes command... A sensory cartography of the full spectrum of our emotions, even of the ones we can’t acknowledge yet.
