Josh Freed hasn´t slept like a baby since he was one. Over the years the insomniac Montréal filmmaker, author and journalist has tried just about everything in quest of a decent night´s shut-eye, but nothing seems to work. Freed knows he isn´t alone: studies show that almost one third of us are up at night with him, suffering from either chronic or occasional insomnia, and walking around exhausted. Being a filmmaker, Freed decides to remedy his situation by putting on his pajamas and embarking on a personal odyssey to find the cure for what ails him ­ while making a film about it. The result is In Search of Sleep: An Insomniac´s Journey, an informative, funny and entertaining hour-long documentary.
