All aboard! Mark Jenkin is in the house! Or should that be boat...
The proudly Cornish, BAFTA-winning director of Bait and Enys Men joins the BIFA podcast to discuss his journey into film, how he developed his trademark post-sync filmmaking process and his new film Rose of Nevada.
A visually stunning, time-looping voyage set on a Cornish fishing boat, Rose of Nevada stars George Mackay and Callum Turner as two men forced to choose between disappearing and belonging when they return from sea to find themselves stuck in the past.
Also discussed: Writing off box set binges as ‘research’, crying at film reviews,
and whether or not the good old days ever really existed.
Catch Rose of Nevada in cinemas from 24 April!
