Awake

Winner of the 2010 Future Filmmaker Competition run by the International Film School Sydney

a-wake
verb
1. to wake up; rouse from sleep
2. to become or cause to become alert
3. to come or bring to an awareness; become cognizant
4. Also: awaken to arouse feelings, or cause to remember memories

Caught between two worlds and confused by recollections of the past, the Girl is haunted by the surreal presence of the Boy. Struggling to accept him and the beauty they are bound by, The Girl must awake; and allow herself transformation.

Aimée-Lee X. Curran's first short film constructs a dreamlike landscape of memories entangled in reality, and a past that bleeds into the present.
