070420

 Short Film Week [5]

The unnamed 070420 was me taking advantage of my, for the first time ever, clean room, containing only a set of draws, bed, glass and telephone.

Man sleepwalks, after his neighbors complain about noises in the night he sets up a motion

sensitive camera to see what happens in the night when he sleepwalks

The sleepwalking man maliciously tries to sabotage the walking man's life, he covers the

camera.

When he awakes he uncovers the camera and plugs in the phone before reviewing the

footage and talking on the phone about. He goes to bed again.

In the night the sleepwalking man leaves a message for the waking man on the camera

before unplugging the phone and turning the camera off.

The waking man is scared of himself and says to his friends “it is like two people fighting

over one body.” He decides to take sleepwalking medicine to keep himself from

sleepwalking.

It works and the man does not sleepwalk.

The next day he talks on the phone about how he didn't think he was going to sleepwalk

again, and if he did he would just take more medicine.

That night the sleeping man leaves a message before cutting the phone line.

The waking man gets worried and goes to take some of the medicine but he has run out so

decides to refuse to sleep resolving to stay awake for as long as possible.

He eventually falls asleep and the sleeping man awakens.

The sleeping man leaves a message and takes sleeping tablets to keep himself asleep,

trapping the waking man in a constant sleep state.
