CGiii Comment

Badly filmed cityscapes. A naked sleeping man. More badly filmed cityscapes. The aftermath of a wet dream. The sun rising. That's it!

This won 'Best Short Film' at the Teddy Awards...and yet, it displays absolutely no filmmaking talent whatsoever. Just goes to show how redundant awards are and that luck - it would seem - is more important than talent.

The(ir) Blurb...

A city at dawn. Traffic is flowing like red and white blood cells. A man sleeps, enveloped in the darkness – he is beautiful, he is naked, it is hot. We will never know what he is dreaming. The sun rises and the façades of the skyscrapers begin to sparkle.
