Bedtime Solos tells the story of a couple over an evening of lovemaking, exploring the isolation that exists between two people even in the height of passion. At times, they speak in conversation, the subtle dance of seduction… at other times, they verbalize their innermost thoughts. They exist half in the waking world, half in sleep, connected yet separate from each other. Poetic and dense with imagery, this examination of how we love also considers why we love. Directed by Bob Paisley
