30 years after vanishing at sea, the eponymous fishing vessel mysteriously reappears in the harbor of a seaside village. The astonished local citizens see its return as a sign, convinced the luck of their economically devastated community may turn, if only the ship sails again. Joining the crew are Nick (George MacKay), desperate to provide for his young family, and Liam (Callum Turner), a mysterious drifter eager to escape his past. When they return from their voyage, nothing is as they remember it. Shooting in supersaturated color on a 16mm Bolex and constructing all the sound in post, Mark Jenkin’s hallucinatory time-travel mystery further solidifies him as one of the most singular artists working in film today.
