In "null," a surreal gallery of cinematic legends—Fay Wray, Eddie Cantor, Clark Gable, Dame May Whitty, Anna Sten, Harpo Marx, Shirley Temple, Ramon Novarro, Edgar Bergen, Buddy Ebsen, Billy Gilbert, and Walt Disney—exists in a quiet, liminal space, their identities blurred by absence and memory. As they move through a dreamlike setting, each seems to sense a missing piece, a presence that should be there but isn’t, leaving behind only echoes of who they were and who they might have been.
