Wikipedia article
'Baa Baa Land' is a 2017 slow cinema film produced by meditation software company Calm featuring eight hours of footage of sheep standing in a field. The idea for the film was conceived by producer Peter Freedman, and was directed, shot and edited by art film director Garth Thomas. Each shot lasts between 30 minutes to over an hour. It was filmed at the Layer Marney lamb and sheep farm near Tiptree in Essex, England, and premiered at the Prince Charles Cinema in London's West End on September 27, 2017.
The film is an example of "slow cinema", a technique that focuses on long takes, minimalism, and often very little to no narrative or dialogue. The film has no plot nor any human actors, dialogue or narrative, and was described as the "dullest movie ever made" by Freedman. It is intended to put viewers to sleep, and was described by producer Alex Tew, a co-founder of Calm along with producer Michael Acton Smith, as "better than any sleeping pill" and "the ultimate insomnia cure".
