The story explores the wholesome journey of a sibling duo, Stevie (12) and Elliot (8), who enter a fantastical world in a quest for Sandman. When the kids witness their parents' marriage falling apart, they look for Sandman to help them.

Its synopsis, as per IMDb, goes as follows:

"Stevie and her little brother Elliot journey into the wildly absurd landscape of their own dreams to ask the Sandman to grant them the perfect family."

As per Netflix, helmer Alex Woo looked back at a personal memory of his childhood in order to find inspiration for the film. He mentioned:

“One of my favorite things to do as a kid was to wake my brother up in the middle of the night and annoy him with accounts of my weird and crazy dreams.”

He continued:

“When I had the opportunity to make my first feature film, I knew exactly what it was going to be about."

Furthermore, Woo also expressed his vision in making In Your Dreams. He stated:

“When I started this film, I set out to tell a heartfelt story that explored the magical and often hilariously absurd world of dreams. What I didn’t expect was how memorable and emotional the performances were going to be. I guess that’s what happens when you’re lucky enough to have Simu Liu and Craig Robinson in your cast. Talk about a dream come true! But what I’m most excited for audiences to experience is Stevie and Elliot’s sibling story — the bickering, the bonding, and everything in between. It’s ultimately why we share our weird and crazy dreams.”
