- Synopsis
- In an eerily familiar city, a calendar reform has dispensed with the past and the future, leaving citizens faceless, without memory or anticipation. Unimaginable happiness abounds - until a woman recovers her face. First she panics, but then, with the help of the Spectral Children, she slowly finds out more about the lost power and history of the human face and begins the search for its future. London has the highest density of CCTV on earth. “Faceless” uses recordings from these cameras, obtained under the UK
  Data Protection Act, as ‘legal readymades’ to construct a strange yet plausible world.
