Sleep (Short Film) Seeking Producers & Creative Collaborators

10 months ago - Aliyu Gambo

Hey everyone! I'm looking to meet producers, creative collaborators, and partners keen to get a short film off the ground. I have been working on the script for a while, so aiming to get momentum going.

LOGLINE:
An NHS nurse and doctor, stuck on a long night shift, grapple with unnatural levels of exhaustion. As tensions rise between the two, compounded by burnout, overwhelming caseloads, and complex cases, details are missed as the doctor makes a devastating mistake that he will do anything to cover up.

Genre & Feel: Sci-fi, thriller, aiming to create something with a sense of hyper-realism.

Themes:
* Burnout & Overwork
* Unfulfillment in work and fear of job loss
* Moral compromise and its consequences
* The mental and physical toll on frontline workers

If these themes resonate with you and you're interested in collaborating, please message me privately, and we can chat.

I've edited your overlong logline - Working a long, problematic night shift, a fatigued NHS doctor makes a mistake that he will do anything to cover up.
