Waking Life (2001)
A young man floats through a series of interconnected dreams, each one bringing him into conversation with a different person. These encounters are philosophical discussions covering topics like free will, existentialism, dreams, and the nature of reality. He struggles to determine if he is actually awake or forever trapped in this perpetual, lucid dream state.
