Stunningly shot on a vintage 16mm camera using monochrome Kodak stock, Mark Jenkin’sBait is a timely and funny, yet poignant film that gets to the heart of a community facing up to unwelcome change.
Modern-day Cornish fisherman Martin (Edward Rowe) 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.
Invada Records present the film's drone-heavy score, composed by Jenkin himself, on beutiful blue vinyl. The LP comes housed in an extra thick deluxe spined sleeve with double sided heavyweight card printed insert, featuring stills from the film. There is also a digital download card included.
