Dream Within a Dream
Don’t worry, this is not another Inception amateur “remake”, but rather a very graphical interpretation of Edgar Allen Poe’s poem A Dream Within A Dream
The short delves into the mind of a man whose sanity frays as he begins to accept the reality of the passing of his loved one, choosing an alternative world as his solace. “Is all that we see or seem — but a dream within a dream?”
