Trevor Reznik is a machinist. A job that, even under normal circumstances is not without its risks, is further complicated by Trevor’s constant insomnia. In fact, Trevor has not had a wink of sleep for over a year. Unable to speak to anyone about his condition, Trevor regards his illness as a dark, embarrassing secret. Moreover, Trevor simply don’t know where the root of his problem lies.
There are two women in Trevor’s life: one of them is a prostitute and the other is a waitress in an airport coffee shop who has an ailing child. Of late, Trevor has been suffering from brutal hallucinations. Gradually, he begins to fear that he may lose control entirely and run amok.
One day at work, Trevor meets a new colleague named Ivan. There’s something wrong with Ivan. Something that makes Trevor keep his distance. Trevor is involved in an accident during which a man loses an arm. Colleagues blame hem for the accident and push for his dismissal. Trevor is determined to hold into his job especially when someone tells him that the new colleague doesn’t even exist.
