Traumdeutung

Synopsis

Dreams, squirrels and videotapes. A man dreams of a squirrel and then - backed up by a battery of machines - mounts an inquiry into the apparition of squirrels in other people's dreams.

Traumdeutung is about tapping into the global reserve of dreams while crossing the border between documentary and surreal.
