Trying To Help A Woman Find Temporary Housing

Dream 1

This dream involved some other people and I sneaking around a slightly fictional version of Eastside in the city of D.

We were sneaking away from and trying to avoid someone / something, but that is all that I can remember of this dream.

Dream 2

This dream took place during maybe a slightly gray day and it took place in a slightly fictional version of Eastside in the city of D again.

My dad was possibly in an earlier part of the dream but I can not remember, I just remember that there was a woman with dark-color skin with black hair who looked like a combination of my former female classmate CH and a female library patron from Eastside who has a baby and a boyfriend and a mother who comes to the library sometimes, and this woman needed help finding some temporary housing.

Maybe someone told my dad that the woman needed help and maybe that is how I got involved but I can not remember, either way, I ended up walking around Eastside with the woman going to various houses in the neighborhood trying to find someone who would let her stay with them temporarily.

The woman had stayed at the houses of various people in the neighborhood before, some who did not want her to stay there again, and some that she did not want to stay at again; and one of these was my uncle IC’s house.

We walked to my uncle IC’s house and asked them, but they said no and so we continued our journey.

The city of D does not really have a homeless shelter that I know of, except maybe for women, but it does have a women’s shelter so I probably mentioned that; but maybe the woman did not want to stay there, but I can not remember.

I remember talking to the woman about the situation trying to figure out any other possibilities, but I woke up.

The end,

What Is It About?

This is how Rotten Tomatoes describes this movie:

Alex Garland, writer of 28 Days Later and Sunshine, makes his directorial debut with the stylish and cerebral thriller, EX MACHINA.

Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac).

Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test-charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence.

That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated–and more deceptive–than the two men could have imagined.
