In this dream I was an extra in the TV show Lost (I'm not sure if this was a reboot or if I'd somehow gone back in time to when they were filming the original series...) They were about to film a scene on a beach (which was actually just a set that had been built by a river in my city) and all the extras were standing on the beach waiting to be told what to do. James Acaster (the comedian) was also an extra, although for some reason he was a child but I still knew it was him somehow. My aunt and two cousins were also there. The director told all the extras to go to our positions. Most of the extras including myself, my aunt and my cousins went into the jungle where we were supposed to hide while the main cast filmed a bit on the beach, and then come out onto the beach. James Acaster was playing a dead body so he lay face down in the sand. After standing in the jungle for a while, my cousins and I got bored and decided to wander off and explore the film set. The 'jungle' only went back a few yards before turning into normal woodland with paths and a narrow road going through it. At one point we came out a bit further along the river and saw a boat pull up and people start loading bodies from the shore onto the boat. I'm not sure whether they were real bodies or if this part of the filming... Eventually I realised my cousins weren't with me anymore so I backtracked to the original beach to find that the filming had finished and everyone had gone home. I then had to walk home and on the way I made up a song about how society puts pressure on young people to go to university & do well but fails to properly prepare them for adult life. Sadly I forgot how this song went after I woke up 😔
