Sandman

Throughout Europe the story of the Sandman has enthralled and frightened generations of children at bedtime. This cautionary tale of the dark, shadowy, figure who will throw sand in the eyes of sleepless children has also had an obvious and practical appeal to many parents (anxious to get their offspring to sleep!) In this 10 minute “film noir”, the story of one such child is told to it’s most sinister conclusion.
