Trevor suffers from insomnia so severe that it affects his weight and his mental health. When Trevor unintentionally causes a horrible on-the-job accident, he begins to become even more troubled. Trevor descends further into paranoia, blaming his problems on an enigmatic figure named Ivan.
Christian Bale made headlines with his jaw-dropping transformation for this film, shedding over 60 pounds to play an insomniac losing his grip on reality. But don’t let that overshadow the film itself: an acclaimed and nightmarish psychological thriller, reminiscent of Lynch, Fincher, and Aronofsky.
