I Can't Sleep

Evil exists where least expected.

A dark, morally ambiguous thriller set in 1990s Paris that weaves together marginalized lives—drag performers, immigrants, the elderly—against the backdrop of a serial killer and the AIDS crisis.

Ninon is a spirited hotel-manager who teaches self-defense classes to her terrified eldery neighbors. Daiga, an aspiring Lithuanian actress newly arrived to Paris, becomes fascinated with the life of a mysteriously beautiful drag performer.
