Synopsis
Four films made in four weeks. Unsaid Stories united some of the UK’s top writing, directing and acting talent to produce four films for prime time ITV in response to Black Lives Matter.
Nicole Lecky (Superhoe, Death in Paradise), who has also written Lavender, plays Jordan a new mother who has recently had a baby with a black man. The drama centres around an uncomfortable conversation had between Lyndsey, Jordan’s mother played by Amanda Abbington (Sherlock, Mr Selfridge, Flack) and her mixed race daughter. As the conversation inevitably progresses, they are forced to confront and evaluate their relationship as a seemingly immovable wedge appears between them.
