A new film “nightdreamblues” is in the works from the people that backed The People I’ve Slept With. The movie follows three childhood friends who reunite for an impromptu birthday celebration. Here’s a synopsis:

An explosive, richly nuanced drama about the struggle to keep our eyes open when we lose our way, this contemporary feature-length film centers on one summer night in Los Angeles and examines the strained relationship between three high school friends, now in their 30s, whose lives have turned out to be nothing like they had imagined.

How do they reconcile the reality of their lives with the burden of their dreams?

This thrilling story begins with high stakes, when life hangs in the balance, with a fateful event that ultimately pulls three old friends back together. Soon, their reunion crashes them into the paths of three entertaining strangers, each a colorful mixture of unbridled enthusiasm for life and a unique perspective of the world around them.

But as the dark and knowing night goes, so go their guards and expectations.

À la great, classic ensemble motion pictures like, THE BREAKFAST CLUB, ANNIVERSARY PARTY, LESS THAN ZERO, ST. ELMO’S FIRE, GARDEN STATE, BEAUTIFUL GIRLS and THE BIG CHILL, this feature film bears the impressive ingredients for an unforgettable movie experience, with an urgent heart, a reckless sense of humor, a vibrant and moving soundtrack, and certainly a clear thirst for redemption and meaning in an uncertain world.

This film is written by West Liang and directed by Nadine Truong. Learn how you can help get this movie made here. Principal Photography begins in September 2011 with release date slated for September 2012.
