Here is the official synopsis of the film:
Slumberland takes audiences to a magical new place, a dream world where precocious Nemo (Marlow Barkley) and his eccentric sidekick Flip (Jason Momoa) embark on the adventure of a lifetime. After the unexpected loss of her father Peter (Kyle Chandler) at sea, young Nemo’s idyllic existence in the Pacific Northwest is turned upside down when she is sent to live in town with her uncle Phillip (Chris O’Dowd ), well-meaning but deeply clumsy. His new school and new routine are tough by day, but by night, a secret map of the fantasy world of Slumberland connects Nemo to Flip, a brutal but lovable outlaw who quickly becomes his partner and guide. She and Flip soon find themselves on an incredible journey through dreams and running away from nightmares, where Nemo begins to hope that she will find her father once more.
Slumberland will debut on Netflix in November 2022.
