The Rose of Nevada was a fishing trawler lost at sea. 30 years later, the boat, empty and with the words “get off the boat now” scrawled on the hull, drifts to the shore of this Cornwall fishing village. Spooked, but also motivated by the presence of a perfectly good fishing boat, a small crew decides to set sail on the Nevada–they need the money and the fish are biting. Soon the crew is lost and then found… back in the 1990s, back to when the Rose of Nevada was originally lost, and now the townsfolk think two of the men are the original fishermen. Starring Callum Turner and George Mackay, Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkins has created an entire body of films that celebrate Cornish life, especially the fishing communities, and Rose of Nevada fits into his oeuvre perfectly–at once a straightforward work, eerie, and with supernatural twists.
