Synopsis: When art student Ben Willis is dumped by his girlfriend Suzy, he develops chronic insomnia after finding out how quickly she moved on. To pass the long hours of the night, he starts working the late night shift at the local supermarket. There he meets a colorful cast of characters, all of whom have their own 'art' in dealing with the boredom of an eight-hour-shift. Ben's art is that he imagines himself stopping time. This way, he can appreciate the artistic beauty of the frozen world and the people inside it - especially Sharon, the pretty and quiet checkout girl, who perhaps holds the answer to solving the problem of Ben's insomnia.

i haven't seen you

at work.

at a travel agent's.

so you're one step closer

to your dream.

listen, i'm sorry about

what happened at the party.

whether you saw the second after or not, it doesn't matter.

i've learned it's what you do with every single second that counts.

shh. it's okay.

this tells me so much more

than you could ever say.

it's snowing outside.

do you trust me?

why?

i need to know.

what happened?

i need to show

you something.

once upon a time,

i wanted to know what love was.

love is there

if you want it to be.

you just have to see

that it's wrapped in beauty

and hidden away between

the seconds of your life.

if you don't stop

for a minute,

you might miss it.

barry! barry! barry! barry!

barry! ooh! oh!
