Will she be able to fend off a deranged culture or will she succumb to the chaos when the world and herself plunge into hysteria?

A depressed ex-soldier struggles to rescue her home after a worldwide event wipes out humanity’s ability to sleep, as civilization and her mind spiral into anarchy.

Awake: What does the Trailer Reveal?

Jill and Noah spend a restless night in the trailer, watching stars in the sky that turn out to be satellites falling from the sky. The very next day, they discover that every electronic system in the world has crashed, and anarchy ensues. To add to the panic, whatever has triggered this technological disaster has also resulted in humanity’s inability to sleep.

The symptoms of insomnia worsen over time: confusion, delusions, and paranoia. However, Matilda, the only female on the planet who can still get a solid 8 hours of sleep, may be the key to humanity’s existence. Will Jill put Matilda on the line for the sake of her fellow man? To be sure, it’s a waking nightmare.
