At the dawn of the cinema age, isolated in his country house, Dr. Epstein conducts various scientific experiments on his adopted children. But the arrival of vagrants interrupts the daily routine, a disturbing figure appears, normality is disrupted and madness lurks… Captured on scraps of outdated 35mm film using a Soviet-era camera from the 70s, “Autumnal Sleeps” has the texture of a waking dream, impalpable and elusive, from which one emerges shivering, with the satisfying sensation of having lived a unique experience.
