Symptomen pictures in a fragmentary way the atmosphere of the daily and nightly activities of two different people. A old man alone in a nursing home and a young nurse who frequently works on nightshifts.
A sleep disorder is what they have in common. The old man as a patient, whose perception is influenced by symptoms of tired- and drowsiness, and the nurse as the one who take's care of his treatment.
The film pictures, through small intimate actions (and hallucinations), the perspective of both characters. Through it's abstract approach the film lightens only a few fragments of there lives. This will emphasize their smaler growing worlds.
