Open Your Eyes

AroView: A surrealistic nightmare unfurled with Hitchcockian precision and irony. Eduardo Noriega plays a young-man-who-has-everything whose whirlwind affair and disfiguring car crash become strange chapters in a fate, identity and reality that has become bent out of recognizable shape.

Rewarded for its dramatic and technical finesse with seven Goya Awards (Spanish Oscars), its gorgeously set-up and multi-layered even if it does get bogged down in the third act by its own high concept. The 25-year-old writer-director also contributes an evocative score.

Remade in the US as Vanilla Sky.
