Description

Iris, a museum conservator in her late forties, is separating from her husband while bringing up two daughters in a house that's falling down.

Raif is a stalled academic, as uncertain of the past as he is the future, whose girlfriend is about to move in.

They meet by chance, nothing important is said, yet Iris turns away and starts to run.

She is running from what this encounter has woken in her. In the City of Love's Sleep is a contemporary fable about what it means to fall in love in middle age.

It charts the steps two people take towards one another and what it means to have taken those steps before.
