SYNOPSIS

On the night the clocks go forward, a girl spirals through the aftermath of her partner’s suicide — alone, high, and unraveling. Daylight Saving Time captures the beauty and brutality of grief in motion. Set over one surreal, sleepless night, Daylight Saving Time follows a young woman spiraling, through drug-fueled distraction, destructive release, and quiet moments of haunting reflection, the film explores grief, denial, and the thin veil between beauty and despair. A raw and intimate portrait of loss, the film captures the way tragedy warps time — where minutes feel like hours, and yet entire nights slip through trembling hands.
