Video Description

Bait director Mark Jenkin returns to the BFI Southbank to tell Mark Kermode about his second feature, an unsettling rural Cornish folk horror.

On an uninhabited island off the Cornish coast in 1973, a wildlife volunteer’s daily observations of a rare flower take a dark turn into the strange and metaphysical, forcing her to question what is real and what is nightmare. Is the landscape not only alive but sentient?

Enys Men is a mind-bending Cornish folk horror shot on grainy 16mm colour film stock and featuring his trademark post-synched sound.
