No Sleep Till
Everyday Floridians engage in scams, tomfoolery, and romantic pursuits in Alexandra Simpson’s feature debut, which captures the state in all its beauty and strangeness as a hurricane rapidly approaches. Winner of a Special Mention from the jury at Venice Film Festival Critics’ Week.
Q&A with Alexandra Simpson on April 9 at 8:00pm (MoMA) and April 11 at 6:00pm (FLC)
The slice-of-life indie is alive and well in Alexandra Simpson’s feature debut, recipient of a Special Mention from the jury at the 2024 Venice Film Festival Critics’ Week. While a looming hurricane spells doom for a sleepy Florida town, citizens carry on: two friends pull pranks and ponder life; another pair captures terrifying footage of the storm; a young woman harbors a deep crush. Through this fleet exploration Simpson keeps audiences on their feet, no two stories told at the exact same tempo and no composition easily anticipated. And backgrounding it all is a sun-soaked, palm tree-lined Florida that has seldom looked as beautiful as it does in No Sleep Till. A Factory 25 release.
