Open Source Movie: Boy Who Never Slept

First we have open source software. Now, we have open source movie. This movie, titled "Boy Who Never Slept" is perhaps the world's first free open source movie and it is available for download. What is interesting about this movie is that everything from the raw footage, the finished product, the audio track, and the script is also available. The director and star of this film called Soloman Rothman has made all these goodies available under a Creative Commons license. Interesting to check out.
Boy Who Never Slept is a free full length movie that anyone can watch, share, and even use in their own derivative works (open source).BWNS is about an insomniac writer and his relationship with a teenage girl he meets online. What begins as merely a friendship, evolves into an unlikely love wrapped in harsh reality.
