A re-telling of ETA Hoffman's "The Sandman" as an exposition of how it inspired Freud's theory of "The Uncanny". Created in the style of early German Expressionist cinema (complete with visual references to Metropolis and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari) using both digital video and 35mm still photography, and combines live action with stop motion animation.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
