By avoiding a clear-cut ending and opting to leave the narrative open-ended, the filmmaker powerfully underscores the reality that overcoming depression is not an instantaneous process, but instead requires time and support. With approximately 5% of adults globally grappling with depression, the film serves as a reminder that individuals facing this challenge are not isolated and the poignant montage of other sufferers in bed during the final scene of Are You Awake? vividly illustrates what a shared experience it unfortunately is. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday
