Across place and time, lucid dreams reconnect two people who once crossed paths.

A ride-sharing motorcycle rider picks up a young woman who has been having the same recurring dream as him. Later, they try to find each other again, using lucid dreams as wayfinding tools, but the universe has other plans. Recalling the somnambulant masterpieces of Apichatpong Weerasethakul (Cemetery of Splendour, MIFF 2015), and expertly blending magic realism with fleeting neorealism, The Sound of Dreaming is a rapturous, heartfelt drama of missed opportunities and the sometimes unforgiving nature of time.
