Paul Matthews (Nicolas Cage), a hapless family man and evolutionary biologist, finds his life turned upside down when millions of strangers suddenly start seeing him in their dreams. But when his nocturnal appearances take a nightmarish turn, Paul’s newfound stardom suddenly turns from celebratory to dangerous, with unforseen consequences for Paul, his wife, and their daughter.

 

Written and directed by Norweigan Kristoffer Borgli (Sick of myself) and produced by horror maestro Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar), Dream Scenario is a hilariously absurdist satire about fame, masculine anxiety, and social media, punctuated by bursts of the chilling and the uncanny. Cafe leads the film with yet another terrific and self-lacerating performance, as a man coming apart at the seams and desperately grasping for control.
