Shot on an Arri Alexa XT with a Vantage Hawk V-Lite 1.3x anamorphic series, the film follows a commuter who falls asleep and wakes up, against his will, in a bus depot.

The 1.3x anamorphic squeeze gives a wide look and distinctive out-of-focus rendering while delivering a standard 16:9 broadcast format, since the film is shot on the 4:3 area of the sensor.
