Join Cinemagic for this year’s pre-recorded Mark Kermode Film Night Q&A where the UK’s leading film critic will be sharing his thoughts on the year’s new film releases before introducing his 2020 film pick Bait.

Modern-day Cornish fisherman Martin is struggling to buy a boat while coping with family rivalry and the influx of London money, Airbnb and stag parties to his harbour village. The summer season brings simmering tensions between the locals and newcomers to boiling point, with tragic consequences.

Stunningly shot on a vintage 16mm camera using monochrome Kodak stock, Mark Jenkin’s Bait is a timely and funny, yet poignant film that gets to the heart of a community facing up to unwelcome change.

Total event running time: 2h 30m approx.
