Synopsis

The Unnameable was filmed on location in France in an abandoned nursery for disabled children in London. The title is a reference to both H.P Lovecraft and Samuel Beckett’s “Unnamables,” stories that melt in and out of reality and psychosis. Their characters fear what they know and what eludes them. The Unnameable was kindly supported by the Arts Council of Ireland.' (Sourced from http://www.unnameable.net/about.html on September 2nd 2016)
