Rose of Nevada

What it’s about

The Rose of Nevada disappeared with all hands three decades ago, leaving a small village in decline. When the boat mysteriously reappears in the old harbour, its owner Mike Bruffin decides to send it to sea again, hoping to restore the community's luck. Captain Murgey takes on two younger men, Nick and Liam, and they set out. Their trip is successful, but upon returning to port they find the village changed: the people greet them as the original crew, and the men realize they have slipped 30 years into the past.

Mark Jenkin wrote the screenplay and composed the music. The film belongs to Jenkin's Cornish Trilogy, a collection rooted in the region's landscape and lore.

Who it’s for
