Bait

Thu 2 Jul

Bait was our first taste of Mark Jenkin’s dreamlike style. A poetic, tense dissection of the DFLs-meet-Cornish-locals culture clash (sound familiar?) This starkly original British drama is set in a Cornish fishing village, where a fisherman’s struggle to preserve his way of life clashes with encroaching tourism and gentrification. Shot in scratchy black-and-white 16mm and hand-processed, its sty...
