About this event

As part of Kernow Kino, Botallack Count House will be screening Enys Men, a film by Mark Jenkin.

Enys Men is a mind-bending Cornish folk horror set in 1973 that unfolds on an uninhabited island off the Cornish coast.
A wildlife volunteer’s daily observations of a rare flower take a dark turn into the strange and metaphysical, forcing both her and viewers to question what is real and what is nightmare. Is the landscape not only alive but sentient? Shot by Jenkin on grainy 16mm colour film stock and with his trademark post-synched sound, the form feels both innovative and authentic to the period. Filmed on location around the disused tin mines of West Penwith, it is also an ode to Cornwall’s rich folklore and natural beauty.

This screening is part of Kernow Kino, a celebration of authentic representation of Cornwall on screen.
Kernow Kino is presented by C Fylm and Screen Cornwall, funded by the BFI Film Audience Network and UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
