AWAKE (full review at Screen Realm)

Jill (Gina Rodriguez) is widowed ex-soldier and recovering addict. She works in security at a research laboratory and sells expired drugs on the side for extra cash. She is determined to win custody of her two children, Matilda (Ariana Greenblatt) and (Lucius Hoyos), who live with their grandmother.

During a routine school-run an unspecified global event take place, cutting the power and, it transpires, preventing the entire world from falling asleep. Without any decent shuteye, it’s not long before everyone descends into hysterical wide-eyed mania and society begins to crumble.

Jill escapes the city with her kids, meeting escaped convict Dodge (Shamier Anderson) en-route and heading for a research station run by her boss, Dr Murphy (Jennifer Jason Leigh). All the while keeping the closely guarded secret that Matilda can still sleep.
