At its center is Layali, a young woman who silently struggles with the condition — a phenomenon known in Arabic as "الجاثوم" — as it invades her waking and sleeping life with equal force. The series examines the psychological and physical toll of sleep paralysis on both the sufferer and the people around her, set within a broader social context that questions how Arab communities understand and respond to invisible medical conditions. It is a sensitive, awareness-raising portrait of a woman navigating a battle that few around her can even see.
