| Being dead tired without being able to get some shut-eye. Or rather, closing your eyes, and trying as hard as you can to sleep, but in vain. People will try anything to enter the land of Nod: herbal remedies, infusions, sleeping pills, reading, watching TV…
According to the statistics, 10% of Swiss people suffer from insomnia, especially women. And for them night-time is often more of a night-mare. For the sleepless, night-time is a world of its own, a world both real and imaginary. This documentary investigates the effects of insomnia on people’s private and social lives, and considers possible cures.
