Synopsis

Kelvin (Ben Waters) wakes up to a call from Shelly (Amanda Driscol) to tell him that her boyfriend, Marcus (Jean Pirae) is on his way to brazen out Kelvin because he has found out about them being together the night before. Kelvin makes a run for it only to find himself fenced by Marcus' web of deception. Fuelled with anger, Marcus and his sidekick, Keith (Huggy Lever) subject Kelvin to a no-mercy treatment. Will the dice reveal Kelvin's destiny or do the tarot cards hold the key to his fate? What if everyday you were given the chance to make the same decision? What if everyone you ever trusted seemed distrustful? Deceptively layered and intriguingly misleading, Somnolence is a gripping tale of a man who finds himself confronted with the inevitable and eternal truth: salvation.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
