He's a natural leader, but treats everyone with respect. If Roy Neary is the reckless, childlike dad, then Lacombe is everyone's perfect father figure. Spielberg takes this sci-fi stock character and classes it up by getting legendary and charming French director François Truffaut ( sigh) to play him as a scientific leader with restraint, benevolence, deep intelligence, and compassion. This ain't no Roland Emmerich flick here, people. He wears a white lab coat, sports disheveled hair, and explains crazy theories with those shifty, mad eyes and is likely played by Woody Harrelson or Brent Spiner. Each of the Non-Non mends their personal lives and is reunited as friends.Claude Lacombe is the French scientist tasked by the UN to lead the investigative team that looks to discover the truth about the strange phenomena witnessed around the world.Ĭhances are you think you've got this character figured out. In the aftermath, Professor Nichcha is arrested and all her implanted chips are extracted from the subjects. After a brief struggle, the group revives Jane and incapacitates the professor. She states that she never meant harm to her subjects, showing that she implanted herself with multiple chips. Professor Nichcha explained that she started Deep to revive her comatose lover, Jed - who fell from a building due to sleep deprivation as shown at the beginning of the movie - using the harvested Qratonins. It is revealed that the group, after shutting Nichcha's surveillance, fakes Win's death using CCL injection to trick her. She tries to extract Win's chip after he fell unconscious and seemingly died, only for him to revive and attack her. Nichcha locks Jane and the group in her patient room. Jane instead discovers that the company was a front, Hans Miller is an actor, and Professor Nichcha is the mastermind behind Deep. By day six, they start to experience vivid hallucinations and the situation descends into chaos, prompting Jane to seek out Professor Nichcha for help. Non-Non, with June, participate in Deep's third level and plan to stay awake with the help of Professor Nichcha. Cin and Peach initially refuse, although they later rejoin the group. She confronts Hans, who threatens that June's third level of Deep has started and he won't remove the chip unless she gathers her friends back for the experiment. Jane witness a student who died due to the Deep.Īfter her grandmother suffers a stroke, Jane discovers that June also participates in the Deep. After Cin's near death experience, the group finishes the second level and quits the experiment, seemingly breaking up. At one point, Cin is shocked to discover that Peach is her stalker, and fell unconscious before being resuscitated.
To cope with this, they held a party at Peach's house. They realize that more students partake in the experiment and their sleepiness slows their Qratonin level rises slower. Each of them becomes increasingly delirious, experiencing visual and auditory hallucinations. They decided to proceed to the second level of Deep, offering an even bigger reward provided they stay awake longer. The group name themselves Non-Non (meaning no-sleep in French and Thai). As they grow closer, Cin confides that she has a stalker. After reaching the end of Deep's first level, they each receive their rewards.
She encounters fellow students and Deep subjects, party-goer Win, gamer nerd Peach, and popular student Cin.
Hans warns that the chip will induce cardiac arrest if she ever falls asleep for more than 60 seconds before she reaches 100% Qratonin levels. After being promised a fitting reward and signing an NDA, Jane was implanted and given a watch to monitor her Qratonin level. This is achieved through implanting a microchip in the subject's nape. The company's head scientist, Hans Miller, explains that their experiment, dubbed Deep, will be conducted in three levels and aims to harvest a brain chemical called Qratonin, which induces wakefulness in humans. Jane's professor, Nichcha, suggests she participate in research held by a German pharmaceutical company. Her intense studying schedule, household duties, and struggle to pay debt prompts her to become an insomniac. Medical student Jane lives with her delinquent younger sister, June, while taking care of their grandmother.
