Three close friends, one woman and two men, come together for the first time in years for a school reunion. With no one else attending except the three of them, they struggle with their suppressed feelings and desires, as supernatural events begin to unfold around them. Set in a world of ghostly forests, fish and karma, this uncanny love triangle takes place in a liminal space between dream and wakefulness, with hypnotic imagery. An innovative and extraordinary debut film from Singapore, Dreaming &Dying is a swirling narrative that weaves together elements of folklore from mythology.
