Hey guys! Horrorella here...
GIRL ASLEEP tells the story of Greta (Bethany Whitmore) - a new girl and a new school, about to turn fifteen, and navigating all of the challenges that this age brings with it - attraction, trying to make friends, dealing with a weird family that just doesn't get you, try as they might. Against her wishes, her mom decides to throw her a birthday party to try to make her transicition to her new school a little more smooth. When it finally all becomes too much, Greta is pulled into a strange and wonderous world where she meets amazing, beautiful and sometimes frightening creatures as she attempts to find her way back home.
I caught this one at the Seattle International Film Festival and loved it - it's a charming look at growing up and trying to find the person you are meant to be.
