Three decades ago, a Cornish fishing trawler named the Rose of Nevada and its entire crew mysteriously vanished at sea. The local community fell into a state of decline and never recovered – until the present day when the Rose of Nevada suddenly reappears out of the fog. Believing this to be a good omen, the desperate locals quickly assemble a new crew – including struggling father Nick (George MacKay) and itinerant labourer Liam (Callum Turner) – to man the vessel on a return voyage. After making a bountiful catch on their inaugural outing, then men return to port only to discover that they have been transported three decades into the past.

BAFTA-winning Cornish filmmaker Mark Jenkin crafts a unique sci-fi mystery that is equal parts hypnotic and haunting with its distinctly analogue aesthetic. The film has received critical acclaim for its spellbinding storytelling and mesmerising sound design, making Jenkin one to watch.

Celebrated documentarian John Wilson brings his signature style of comedic observation to the big screen with this eccentric documentary feature about – what else – everyone's favourite building material.

What begins as a simple suburban investigation into cracked sidewalks in New York rapidly expands into an absurd, globetrotting exploration of humanity's relationship with concrete. Narrated by Wilson in his deadpan voiceover, the documentary weaves thousands of hours of street footage, awkward encounters, and historical archives into a compelling narrative as Wilson travels from ancient Roman ruins to massive Chinese megacities, chatting with eccentric masonry enthusiasts, city planners, and street artists. Through witty visual juxtapositions and surreal detours, The History of Concrete transforms a documentary about a mundane construction material into a hilarious, deeply human reflection on urban isolation, corporate greed, and civilisational durability. Not to be missed.
