Nocturnus

Director: Meltse Van Coillie & Harm Dens

Nocturnus takes you into the darkness. After all, night is not always a time, sometimes it can be a place. In the northernmost village of our planet, the sun doesn’t show itself during an entire winter. The villagers crawl close together and doze of into months of hibernation. This extraordinary phenomenon arouses the interest of some scientists... It’s the young doctoral student Olivia who first describes human hibernation. Immediately, the European Space Agency sends its most renowned sleep researcher: Noor. She has to find out whether Olivia’s scoop would enable distant space travel. Will both women succeed in shining their light on this enigmatic hibernation? Or does the collaboration falter and do they grope vainly in the dark?
