We Are Making a Film About Mark Fisher (2025)
A cinematic experiment exploring the continuing relevance of the late theorist’s ideas on capitalism, culture, and the future. Blending documentary, performance, and hauntological fiction, the film follows Parkins — a time-slipped character — through ghostly landscapes and digital spaces, tracing Fisher’s thought from the 1990s to our algorithmic present.
Directors: Sophie Mellor, Simon Poulter.
