Stuart Byrne is a young, beautiful, single businessman who finds
his perfect life sabotaged by a growing awareness of his own
superficiality. Nauseated by his own helplessness, struck by a
creeping lethargy, Stuart tumbles through a tumultuous week of
excess, promiscuity, deception, cowardice, and regret, and in the
process manages to trade his slick perfection for a fantastic, and
darkly hilarious, catastrophe. A deadpan comedy about the rather
unfunny void in the center of many modern lives, "Sleepwalker"
explores how our trying to fill that void can be just as
destructive as ignoring it, and how the world will always let the
beautiful get away with murder.
