Overview
Living on an island off the Cornish coast, a wildlife volunteer's daily observations of a rare flower takes a dark turn into the strange and metaphysical, forcing her to question what is real and what is a nightmare.In 1973, a wildlife volunteer on a windswept, uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, and shot on enveloping, period-evocative 16mm, this eerie and masterful vision of horror from Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin (BAIT) conjures works of classic British folk horror but remains its own strange being – a seemingly genuine transmission from another world.
