What Wide Awake Is About
The director Alan Berliner tells his lifelong insomnia through himself in this documentary. The camera runs while he tries to quiet a mind that never stops so that he can get a decent night’s sleep, recording the details of living with a chronic sleep disorder. As the search for balance goes on, his friends and family, who bear the worst of it, put a question to him: does he really want to be cured. The film does not close that question. The account makes its editing resemble the rhythm of sleeplessness; the cuts are frequent and the night scenes long. Alan Berliner’s seventy nine minute American documentary was completed in 2006.
