Viņa atnāk naktī klusi kā kaķis. Viņa neļaus viņam aizmigt, kamēr viņš to nepabaros. Viņa vēlas pienu, kuru viņš atradis starp sapni un īstenību. Viņas vārds ir Bezmiegs. Ar zīmuļiem krāsotā attēla ņirboņa izceļ trauksmaino stāvokli starp nomodu un miegu.

Pirmā filma, ar kuru Latvijas un pasaules profesionālajā apritē uz palikšanu ienāca Vladimirs Leščovs. Latvijā gan viņš tika pamanīts jau pēc diviem studiju laika darbiem, taču Bezmiegs 2005. gadā kļuva par pasaules kinofestivālos visvairāk izrādīto un apbalvoto Latvijas filmu, Francijā tā tika nominēta balvas Les Lutins gada labākās Eiropas īsfilmas titulam un iekļauta nominēto filmu programmā, kas tika izrādīta gandrīz 20 valstīs vairākos kontinentos.

This is the film with which Vladimir Leschiov permanently joined the professional world of cinema in Latvia and abroad. In Latvia, however, Leschiov had already been noticed after two works created during his studies, while Insomnia became the most screened and most decorated Latvian film at international festivals in 2005. In France, Insomnia earned a nomination for best European short film and was included in the nominated film programme, which was screened in almost 20 countries around the world.

She comes in the night, quiet as a cat. She doesn\'t let him sleep until he feeds her. She wants the milk he has found between dreams and reality. Her name is Insomnia. The rippling image, drawn with coloured pencils, creates an anxious mood between waking and sleep.
