The Unnameable

Synopsis

The Unnameable is an 11 minute artists’ film trading in popular culture, sci-fi, cinema and horror. The title is a reference to both HP Lovecraft and Samuel Beckett's "Unnameables"; stories that melt in and out of reality and psychosis. Their characters fear what they know and also what eludes them. The Unnameable was filmed in an abandoned nursery for disabled children in west London.
