A narcoleptic copywriter is lost between two worlds, her dreams and reality.
DIRECTOR
Hello my name is Angelica Perez-Castro. Born and raised in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, I moved to the United States to pursue a Master’s of Arts in FILM and TELEVISION at Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), in Atlanta, GA. My areas of interest are Directing, Producing, Cinematography, and Writing. I’ve started my own production company called apc films, LLC. I am excited to achieve a career in the film industry and I am ready to present my thesis production titled Despierta to the world!
FILM
Recently fired copywriter battles against her own narcolepsy to recover her dream journal which holds the perfect logline.
Despierta is a story told in a unique way about a Latina copywriter who suffers from narcolepsy. We’ve all experienced moments of confusion on a daily basis. Separating our memories or dreams from reality is a necessary survival skill in an ever changing world. Despierta reveals a creative approach to overcoming obstacles. We hope the film resonates with you.
