Director’s Statement: “Dream On” is a Surreal/Drama based on following dreams. Paul lives a monotony, boring life without questioning why he lives like that but constantly dreams of another life and place. The idea comes from the points in life where we get accustomed to living the same every day, from being afraid of taking risks and getting out of our comfortable places. All this brings the influence of movies like Nimic(2019), The Lobster (2015), and Fight Club (1999). In addition, a reflection on life and surreal elements inspires this project.
