About Time
Sun 5 - Sun 26 April
Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin’s enigmatic and exquisitely crafted new film Rose of Nevada plays with cinematic time leaving its characters uncertain of the reality of their situation. This play with time and character has been a signature creative element of filmmaking.
