‘Rose of Nevada’ Poster Teases Another Eerie Seaside Mystery from the Director of ‘Enys Men’
The official poster has arrived for Mark Jenkin‘s (Enys Men) next film, Rose of Nevada, teasing another eerie, seaside mystery.
Shooting on a 16mm Bolex camera and constructing all the sound in post, Jenkin writes, directs, edits and scores what the press release calls “a cinematic séance, conjuring a portal into another world that forces us to confront the past and our relationship to it.”
In the film:
“Three decades ago, the Rose of Nevada vanished at sea, along with its crew. Now, it has returned. In a remote fishing village, its reappearance is embraced as an auspicious sign, with the local citizens convinced the luck of their economically devastated community may turn, if only the ship sails again.
“Joining the crew is Nick (George MacKay), desperate to provide for his young family, and Liam (Callum Turner), a mysterious drifter eager to escape his past. After a successful voyage, they return to harbor, only to find that nothing is as they remember it.”
As a fan of horror by the sea, Enys Men immediately caught my attention as a haunting piece of surrealism that hasn’t left my mind since. Based on the trailer and poster below, I expect Jenkins is going to deliver another captivating seaside tale with Rose of Nevada.
Sail with the Rose of Nevada when the film opens in New York and Los Angeles on June 19th.
