Gavin McInnes is sent out by Netflix to Time Square to document people attempting to break the record for consecutive movie watching without sleep. In solidarity, Gavin and his film crew attempt to stay awake along with the contestants. Simultaneously, Gavin experiences the same amount of sleep deprivation without the reward of that promised to the contestants. As he experiences a sort of existential awakening, along with sleep deprivation and the effects that come with it, he accepts the absurdity of the situation in its entirety and asks, what does it truly mean to be tired.
A Million in the Morning
The film follows 8 contestants as they compete as part of the Movie Watching Championship, all trying to break the World Record for most consecutive hours without sleep...while watching movies...in the middle of Times Square.
