Synopsis

A hapless family man finds his life turned upside down when millions of strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams. When his nighttime appearances take a nightmarish turn, Paul is forced to navigate his newfound stardom.   In-between dreams, Nicolas Cage is brilliant in the role of Mr Everyman who comes to haunt dreams.

After Sick of Myself, Kristoffer Borgli returns with Dream Scenario, a zany critique of 2.0 celebrity in the age of the internet.
