Overview
Natalia struggles with relentless insomnia and seeks comfort in hypnotherapy. An experimental treatment plunges her into surreal inner worlds where her deepest fears—death, failure, and loss—manifest as haunting revelations. Guided by her therapist, she travels through a dangerous mental labyrinth, where each world shifts unpredictably between redemption and ruin. Insomnia is a science fiction short film that uses artificial intelligence as a tool to delve into the depths of the human psyche.
