As you sleep the world empties | Vasilis Kekatos
An epidemic has hit mankind. People from all ends of the Earth are asleep, and no one knows when they'll wake. Few are those who are not infected; among them, a boy who fell in love with a girl right before the disease outbreak. With an old camera, he attempts to capture what beauty is left, so that the girl can see it once she awakens.
