Entirely rotoscoped, Waking Life is Richard Linklater's first animated feature, following one man left adrift in a town which becomes increasingly dream-like the longer he stays.

Linklater is well known for exploring philosophical issues and Waking Life is no exception, exploring free will, existentialism and the nature of dreams and reality.
