Unmade Beds

Axl 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 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. Soundtracked with infectious indie pop tunes and imaginatively using montage and cinematography to evoke the rush and excitement of urban London – before gentrification made the city essentially habitable for young creative types - UNMADE BEDS is poised to become a cult film in the mold of “(500) Days of Summer” or Michael Winterbottom's London set films “Wonderland” and “9 Songs”.
