Sight and Sound, May 2026
“The first thing we see is a jellyfish, pulsing in the oily grey shallows of a Cornish harbour. Rust eats at the metal of the moorings, oxidising the paintwork into blooms that resemble fungi and moss. Blades of new grass sway against the backdrop of a boat that hasn’t seen the sea in a lifetime. The static images themselves seem to tremble. Time erodes. Nature reclaims. In Mark Jenkin’s films, work is rarely far away: boots walking, nets dragging, the slow rhythm of industry meeting the sea. We follow the boots to the harbour’s edge. A man drops down on to the deck of a waiting boat. For the denizens of Rose of Nevada, Jenkin’s third feature, the past does not stay sunken. It seeps into the present like seawater through rotting wood.”
— Mike Williams on Rose of Nevada, in our cover interview
