Alan Berliner: filmmaker and lifelong insomniac. This 'HBO Documentary Films' presentation explores Berliner's complicated relationship with sleep and the unsettling ripple effect his insomnia has had on everyone around him. Incorporating archival film clips, consultations with sleep experts, an overnight stay at a sleep lab, conversations with family members, home movies and dream visualizations, this caffeinated film takes an eye-opening look at a restless soul who derives most of his creative energy at night, but who is often left feeling "jet lagged in his own time zone."
