216 – Mark Jenkin Director of Bait and Enys Men

BAFTA Award winning director Mark Jenkin joins us to talk about his unique approach to sound for his films. He shoots his films on a bolex camera entirely without sound and only adds ADR (which he records himself) after the film is edited. He also writes and records the score himself. All of this to make utterly unique films that have found both an audience and critical acclaim in the UK and beyond.
