Insomnia-as-gateway-to-haunting is horror 101, and Digiano doesn't subvert it so much as lean into the mood—which is fine, but it's the kind of film that confirms what you already believe about ghosts rather than making you rethink them.
There's a considered restraint here in the visual language, a willingness to let negative space and duration do the psychological work; Digiano situates himself in the lineage of slow-burn supernatural cinema, and the editing respects that discipline.
The decision to keep the ghosts ambiguous—are they manifestations of sleep deprivation or actual presences?—hinges entirely on a single sustained take that trusts the actor's exhaustion over exposition, and that economy of commitment is what transforms three minutes into something that lingers.
