Alexis Dos Santos' vivid, seductive second feature UNMADE BEDS is a lyrical tale of two solitary expats crossing paths in the cosmopolitan art-rock milieu of a sprawling East London squat.
Axl (Fernando Tielve) arrives in the UK to look for his long-lost father and instead is adopted by the bohemian Mike and Hannah who introduce him to gigs in English pubs and free spirit living. Vera (Deborah Francois) is a French heartbreaker who strikes up a charming romance with X Ray Man until a failed meeting sets her on a quest to recapture traces of time they spent together by taking Polaroids.
An idiosyncratic and atmospheric anti-romance, UNMADE BEDS has screened at Sundance, Berlin and Edinburgh International Film Festivals. Featuring music from Kimya Dawson, Plaster of Paris, (We Are) Performance and Tindersticks as well as many more, UNMADE BEDS is this year's coolest paean to good music, bad hangovers and lost love.
