"It's supposed to be a good thing, isn't it: finding something that got lost? But what if that lost thing isn't just a pair of sunglasses but a whole entire boat, the likes of which hasn't been seen for 30 years? In Mark Jenkin's forthcoming Rose of Nevada, out June 19, the title refers to said missing ship, once lost only to now drift back into the harbor of the remote fishing village whence it disappeared."
"It's not enough, however, that the Rose of Nevada is back. In the years since its disappearance, the town has descended into a state of economic ruin. If only the Rose of Nevada were to sail again, maybe the village's fortunes could be reversed. Among the ship's new set of crew members are Brit hunks du jour Callum Turner and George MacKay, who perhaps don't know what they're getting themselves into."
A once-missing ship, the Rose of Nevada, drifts back into the harbor of a remote fishing village after thirty years. The village has fallen into economic ruin since the ship's disappearance, and townspeople hope that the vessel's return and possible sailing could reverse their fortunes. New crew members include British actors Callum Turner and George MacKay who seem unprepared for local realities. The film balances nostalgia and dread, teetering on folk-horror through atmosphere and suggestion. A threatening message — "GET OFF THE BOAT NOW" — appears carved into the berth, signaling impending danger when discovery comes too late.
