Trailer
Overview
Sleepless is a 2001 Italian Giallo film directed by Dario Argento. The motion picture, which is also known by the original Italian title Non ho sonno, falls under the horror, mystery, and thriller genres. The film has a runtime of one hour and fifty-seven minutes and received an R rating in the United States, where it was released on August 24, 2001. The plot follows an elderly and retired police detective who joins forces with a young amateur sleuth. Together, they work to track down a serial killer who has resumed a killing spree in Turin, Italy, following a seventeen-year hiatus. The film was subject to indexing in Germany starting in 2008, a status that was eventually lifted in November 2016. This production is distinct from the 2017 American action thriller of the same name directed by Baran bo Odar. The 2001 film remains a notable entry in the Giallo genre, characterized by its suspenseful narrative focused on the investigation of a long-dormant criminal presence returning to the city.
