Ofélia can´t sleep.
In the heart of Russia's Urals, beside the murmuring Kamenka River, "Ophelia Can´t Sleep" crafts a tale soaked in Pre-Raphaelite allure. As sunset meets the river's edge, Ophelia is caught in a perpetual dance between sleep's embrace and the river's pull. The familiar tragedy is subverted: every time slumber nearly claims her, the resolute spirit of the land stirs her awake, preventing her fateful descent into the water's depths. Evoking the rich visuals of Von Trier and Millais' masterpieces, the film portrays a persistent Ophelia, surrounded by blossoms and waters, endlessly defying her tragic destiny. Amidst nature's whispers, the narrative celebrates the power of resistance and the undying hope that love imprints on the soul.
