The Deep and Dreamless Sleep is a 2006 American independent feature film adaptation of Dante Alighieri's 14th century poem Divine Comedy, set on the streets of downtown Manhattan, written and directed by Matthew Harrison.
The movie features animated segments, dramatizing back-story, photographed by artist Gina Garan using her collection of Blythe dolls.
The Deep and Dreamless Sleep also features a score by the collaborative team Luxurious, comprising Lee Curreri, Peter Freeman and Jeff Rona.
Guided by street hustler Brady who claims to know her errant boyfriend's whereabouts, the two set off on a journey through downtown New York City's night world.
From the ferries of the Styx (in this case the Hudson) through Hell’s Kitchen and back to the Upper West Side, this film shows us a New York of a different kind.”
