The neo-noir crime thriller “Sleep No More” will hold an exclusive screening at the Festival de Cannes on Sunday, May 19, 2023 at 5:30 p.m. at Palais B.

Directed by Antonia Bogdanovich and executive produced by the late Peter Bogdanovich, the Los Angeles-set feature stars Rebecca Romijn, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Luke Kleintank, and Tobin Bell.

“Sleep No More” follows Warren Emerson, once a celebrated Shakespearean actor who has fallen into alcoholism and gambling. His sons, Samuel and Beckett, survive the streets of Hollywood through performance and pickpocketing while attempting to escape the dangerous grip of a ruthless loan shark. Blending Shakespearean themes with urban noir, the film explores family, survival, and tragedy against the backdrop of Hollywood’s decay.

The film combines elements of crime, drama, and psychological thriller, featuring counterfeit money, dangerous confrontations, and a story inspired by the emotional weight of a Shakespearean tragedy.

Director: Antonia Bogdanovich

Cast: Rebecca Romijn, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Luke Kleintank, Tobin Bell
