ABOUT
Wake Up is a story about finding your humanity in a world that sometimes feels designed to diminish it. The film actualizes the proverbial “rat race” as a surreal metropolis inhabited by anthropomorphic rats. The rodent society we observe is one that’s unquestionably their own, yet undoubtedly familiar.
We follow Horatio, our furry protagonist, and discover a world burdened by routine. The daily grind has stripped all the rodent citizens of their spark—well, almost all of them. Horatio comes across a few rats who’ve found a simple yet profound joy that rekindles their humanity: Xbox.
