INDIGO SOUL NYC: FRIDAY FILMS (EVERY FRIDAY)

9/23 Call The Sandman

Set in a boring and bureaucratic version of NYC, former lovers Izumi and Alex go about their mundane existences while quietly refusing to give into mandates of the new dystopian society – namely undergoing a surgical treatment that renders the brain incapable of dreaming. A mysterious company called the Sandman Corp., led by the equally enigmatic Dr. Esperanza Haddid, boldly claims to have developed a technology to create alternate realities or dreams by scanning people’s’ memories. Alex and Izumi set out to find Dr. Haddid in hopes of revisiting feelings that have been hidden for years.
