Residents of the Florida coast face an impending hurricane in this visually striking film. Director Alexandra Simpson guides viewers through the overlooked edges of society—crumbling motels, quiet suburbs, and abandoned parking lots. As the storm looms, it remains uncertain whether these places will survive or be wiped off the map. Premiered at this year's Venice Film Festival, No Sleep Till paints a haunting picture of communities on the brink of destruction.
