Bait (15)
Dir. Mark Jenkin, UK, 2019, 89 mins.
Cast. Morgan Val Baker, Georgia Ellery, Martin Ellis, Ed Rowe, Mary Woodvine, Giles Smith.
With Director Intro and Q&A on Friday 27 September
Stunningly shot on a vintage 16mm camera using monochrome Kodak stock, Mark Jenkin’s remarkable new film is a timely and funny, yet poignant tale that gets right to the heart of a Cornish community facing an unwelcome change. Modern-day fisherman Martin is struggling to buy a boat while coping with family rivalry and the influx of London money, Airbnb and stag parties to his harbour village. The summer season brings simmering tensions between the locals and newcomers to boiling point, with tragic consequences. Bait is a funny yet poignant new film that gets to the heart of a community facing up to unwelcome change.
