New Delhi: Kristoffer Borgli has directing, screenwriting, and producing credits for Dream Scenario. Aster, the famous director, created this dark comedy-drama.
The life of a troubled man is flipped upside down in Dream Scenario, starring Nicolas Cage, the Oscar-winning actor, when he learns that millions of unrelated individuals are dreaming about him. He likes being a star and is engrossed in the limelight since everyone is talking about him. Rapid decline is occurring as public outcry escalates and those dreams turn into nightmares.
Dream Scenario was a great critique of celebrity fandom in the fascination of a familiar face despite not knowing anything about them. It was also a good perspective of how powerful our dreams can be when we can’t pull them away from reality. Nicolas Cage is a beast in this movie… pic.twitter.com/gKfs9x6mX4

Plot
The basic idea behind the Dream Scenario becomes more complicated and murkier as the story progresses. Paul Matthews, a biology professor, who was previously living a normal, unremarkable existence, starts to acquire an incredible amount of recognition and attention after appearing in the dreams of strangers.
Several nuanced stories emerge as the number of witnesses grows and they start to identify him. From pointing out the benefits and drawbacks of fame to its unpredictable and erratic behaviour, Dream Scenario expertly plays by its own rules.
Now Paul may be held responsible for everything that occurs in people’s dreams, even if he has no control over it. Paul finds himself caught amid a sea of fluctuating feelings of love and hatred, even though most people first dreamed of him as a passive, dispassionate element of their dream journeys.
