Cornish Trilogy (Region B) Blu-ray ***Preorder*** 8/24

A journey through the edges of British cinema, Mark Jenkin: The Cornish Trilogy brings together Bait (2019), Enys Men (2023), and Rose of Nevada (2025) in a definitive 3‑disc Blu‑ray collection that captures one of the most distinctive filmmaking voices of the century. This box set celebrates Jenkin’s handcrafted aesthetic—grainy 16mm textures, tactile soundscapes, and a fiercely independent spirit—while showcasing the evolution of a director who has redefined what regional cinema can be.

Bait, the breakout masterpiece that won Jenkin a Bafta, is a raw and riveting portrait of a Cornish fishing village caught between tradition and gentrification. Enys Men pushes further into the uncanny, blending folk horror and experimental filmmaking into a haunting meditation on isolation, landscape, and memory. Completing the trilogy, Rose of Nevada expands Jenkin’s vision while retaining his unmistakable visual language, offering a bold, atmospheric tale that deepens his reputation as a singular storyteller.
