Two night owls navigate love, isolation, and disability in this romantic series

Description

Harry spends her nights DJing at the local radio station, dispensing advice to the broken-hearted. As a wheelchair user, she’s learned to ignore societal isolation and now practices hyper-positivity to help others find love. When she meets Luna, a cagey textbook writer who can only fall asleep in the daytime, the pair’s undeniable connection rocks both of their worlds.

In Episodes 1-3 of this rousing romance from NewFest alum Samantha Lee (BILLIE & EMMA), Harry and Luna must merge their self-sustaining bubbles in order to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of true satisfaction. SLEEP WITH ME is a love affair for night owls that explores the many ways queerness and disability intersect.
