I own the VHS of this movie, and can tell you it is based on fact. What a tragic tale told so wonderfully. It has been said there is a lot of nudity, but truly not as much as one could expect.

Shot in the same "Bourne" still grainy/moodiness of Olivier Assayas last film "Demonlover", it provides passable entertainment and international intrigue. Makes a good double bill with Demonlover.             I Can't Sleep Yekaterina Golubeva, Richard Courcet Fox Lorber, 2005 The Point Being I believe that people who search for the director's point or meaning to the overlapping stories in "I Can't Sleep" only do themselves a disfavor.
