Scared to Dance: Rose of Nevada (35mm) + Mark Jenkin Q&A

Scared To Dance presents a screening of Rose of Nevada in 35mm plus a Q&A with director Mark Jenkin, hosted by Paul Richards.

"A Cornish modern classic. Eerie, heart-breaking, wonderful" - Mark Kermode

When a fishing boat, the Rose of Nevada, lost with all hands 30 years ago, mysteriously reappears in the old harbour of a forgotten Cornish village, for those who remember, it’s surely a sign. The boat must go out to sea again and maybe then the luck of the devastated village will turn. Young father Nick (George MacKay) and enigmatic newcomer Liam (Callum Turner) join captain Murgey (Francis Magee), and they head to sea. But when they return, satisfied with their haul, something is amiss — they’ve slipped back in time, and the villagers greet them as if they are the original crew.

Rose of Nevada is Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin’s critically acclaimed follow-up to his BAFTA-award-winning first feature Bait (2019) and Enys Men (2022). Unique among British feature filmmakers for the analogue way in which he crafts his films, Jenkin once again serves as writer, director, director of photography, editor, sound designer and score composer.
