Synopsis:
In 300 B.C. the Chinese philosopher Chuang Tzu awoke from dreaming himself as a butterfly, only to wonder if he was not in fact a butterfly now dreaming himself as a man…
Until the accident, Rob Pollack lived a tranquil dream-life -- a career, a home and Katrina, his wife. Now everything is unraveling as he desperately grapples to piece together the moments before her tragic death. His vivid dreams blur with his slippery reality. Facts melt into fiction as his emotionally charged memories play tricks on him, forcing him to question everything about his past. Can he even be sure he himself is not his own dream?
Butterfly Dreaming takes us on Rob's tortured ride down the road of uncertainty, in the tradition of mystery & suspense thrillers like Memento, Premonition and Mulholland Drive. |
